HIGH SCHOOL BLUES


The way you punched me was so cool, your skull ring gave me a bad bruise
I sit and think about you every night
Lipstick and matching punk rock shades, fill my eyes with tear and glaze
The tunnel's dark but I can see a light

And god I think about you, every day, I know some girls are beter, better left unchanged
And if I had your love oh Traci yeah it's true, I'd take a shot, I'd die for you

I saw your friends at 12 Oaks Mall, some jocks were following you all
I stood way back and made sure you were safe
We both had Arby's you don't know, yeah I was there I'd never go
We smoked a cigarette at Jim's arcade

And God I long to hold you, everyday, I'd never be so dumb to fall astray
And If I had the time oh Traci yeah it's true. I'd build a castle just for you

So now you've heard my stupid tale, to have you I would go to jail
I'd give my air up just so you can breathe
I hope you've listened to the tune, there's not a thing I wouldn't do
So tell me shall I stay or shall I leave

Cause God I long to hold you, everyday, I know your life would be much better with me
And if I had your love oh Traci yeah it's true
I'd throw my world away for you
