Shell 02:33
Friend of mine serving lies Said that you were doing fine Used to write subject lines Stories from another time Jean looked at her socks by the window And I held a big shell at the beach Hair slicked back like Ringo in the 80’s A sun-kissed younger version of me Stand in line, movie night Catch you on the other side Butterflies on your mind Think that I could stay awhile Here’s one that I’ve really been into 40,000 views that’s right Have you tried savory oatmeal I’ll tell you all about it on the drive Listen to the sound Of the birds outside Little do they know That they’re playing our song Say that you’ll stay out of line Let’s never shovel snow on a Saturday Do the wrong thing from time to time If it’s a job I’ll resign Let’s take our looks and our goods and runaway Do the right thing from time to time Remember when Jean looked at her socks by the window And I held a big shell at the beach Hair slicked back like Ringo in the 80’s A sun-kissed younger version of me

Planet Blue 02:50
You were a gem, I was a child The stars aligned, but I got tired You took me where you needed to You dropped me off on planet blue Planet blue has a big bed to dream in Silky sheets, pretending to sail to sea with And a plane to jump out of the sky screaming Feather pillow, to bury your head in waiting Waiting It’s so messy sitting in the backyard Why the neighbors always staring at my car Tried to plant a vine to climb the side door August came and dried it out no more Planet blue has a big bed to dream in Silky sheets, pretending to sail to sea with And a plane to jump out of the sky screaming Feather pillow, to bury your head in waiting Waiting You were a gem, I was a child The stars aligned, but I got tired You took me where you needed to You dropped me off on planet blue
