She is busking every cent of her life
Mesmerized how they walk on by
Well don't worry babe its the same up north
Land of the free but everybody's bored
And so you spent it all away you don't fall far from your folks
And you think you're so fine singing all the lyrics to the Strokes
Well you gotta stay cool girl keep composed
Especially you who's never thinking about tomorrow
And I can't seem to shake this dream
It seems its become my reality
Left behind became who I want to be
Forget all the toys babe this is all you'll need
But you spent it all away you don't fall far from your folks
And your mama says lately you've been rolling like a stone
Well you gotta stay cool girl keep composed
Especially you who's never thinking about tomorrow
And I know you tried to take a sip of my soul
Well sorry babe that door is going to stay closed
And I'm just trying to find what goes on in your mind
But you never seem to let me inside
We can glide all night getting high on the blues
Trying to light your fire can't find your fuse
But you spent it all away you don't fall far from your folks
And you think you're so fine singing all the lyrics to the Strokes
Well you gotta stay cool girl keep composed
Especially you who's never thinking about tomorrow
And I know you tried to take a sip of my soul
Well sorry babe that door is going to stay closed
And I'm just trying to find what goes on in your mind
But you never seem to let me inside
Had it there but it slipped away
Now life is at your door and its been asking for its pay
Afraid that the game might eat you alive
She had the talent but never believed it in her mind
