Floyd Marsden - Auburn Thomas

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1984165
verse
I fill my lungs with watermelon sugar
That’s not a harry reference, i promise
Ramble on, i ramble on all the time
I shift into the shape for another life
In my ears and on my tongue it spills from my mouth
And into yours, cigarette smoke and laughter
Aren't i so impressive the way i warp the minds
And wrap everybody's arms around mine

chorus
God, i wish i was in the 70s' just for robert plant to give me
A quick kiss and a concert and to be a groupie
But i'll settle for the kiss of a girl at a party who can take a drag from me
I'm so happy to be alivе in this time

verse
Holding hands in a circle like ring-a-rosiе
Pockets not full of posies, but vapes and loose change and toys
Aren't i so impressive the way i warp the minds
And wrap everybody's arms around mine

chorus
God, i wish i was in the 70s' just for robert plant to give me
A quick kiss and a concert and to be a groupie
But i'll settle for the kiss of a girl at a party who can take a drag from me
I'm so happy to be alive in this time

bridge
Intermission draws, so off the costume goes
But i'm thinking of you all through the show
Through masks and make up and stage lights and props
I bet it's easy for me to ignore the signs to stop
But i'm thinking of you all through the show
And i wouldn't say no to a surprise with a rose

outro
I wish i was in the 70s' just for robert plant to give me
A quick kiss and a concert and to be a groupie
But i'll settle for the kiss of a girl at a party who can take a drag from me
I'm so happy to be alive in this time
