The Nest

Do the dishes
Pick up your room
You better ask for permission, even though
Even though you're leaving soon
21's a dumb age
When 18's enough to go to war
So when you leave for the weekend
You don't have to lie about a glass of wine

I remember the day you were born
It was snowing in Dallas, Texas
Whole world stopped and started again
Now the nest is empty

(Ohh ohh oh ohh oh)
Now the nest is empty (Ohh ohh oh ohh oh)
(Ohh ohh oh ohh oh)
Now the nest is empty (Ohh ohh oh ohh oh)
HEY!

Your room's bright with trophies
One thing that hasn't changed
A house built from sound waves
So silent it'll drive you insane
Now I'm stuck on the freeway
Headed home to the east bay
What happened to young age darlin'
Those were the best days

I remember the day you were born
It was snowing in Dallas Texas
Whole world stopped and started again
Now the nest is empty
Yaa
I remember the day you were born
It was snowing in Dallas, Texas
Whole world stopped and started again
Now the nest is empty

Woahhh ohh oh
Woahhh ohh ohh ohh oh
Woahhh ohh oh
Woahhh ohh ohh ohh oh
Woahhh ohh oh
Woahhh ohh ohh ohh oh
Woahhh ohh oh

I remember the day you were born
It was snowing in Dallas, Texas
Whole world stopped and started again
Now the nest is empty

Your room's bright with trophies
One thing that hasn't changed
A house built from sound waves
So silent it'll drive you insane
