Slow It Down

Pretty face
Ain't it true
But that's not gonna
Pay your dues so
Don't roll it off your shoulder
You're only getting older tonight

Daddy's car
Drives real fast
But honey don't you know
Those things they
Never last
So pull yourself together
You look under the weather
It's true

You walk around
With your head in the clouds
Do you even know your age
The bottles
The dresses
And the cigarettes
Are from last week's ex-fiance
So slow it down
Little darling
You gotta work
For what you need
Cause the planes
Keep on flying
And cars
Are Rolling 'round
In the street

Spanish heart
Checkered past
Holiday from boarding school in
Paris, France
Don't worry about the letters
I changed my old address in the states

Spent my last
Twenty bucks
On cheap whisky
And some
Paper cups
So here's to living faster
The world will turn long after you're gone

You walk around
With your head in the clouds
Do you even know your age
The bottles
The dresses
And the cigarettes
Are from last week's
Ex-fiance

So slow it down
Little darling
You gotta work
For what you need
Cause the planes
Keep on flying
And your soldiers laying dead
In the street

I said
Slow it down
Little mama
You gotta work
For what you need
Cause the planes
Keep on flying
And your soldiers laying dead
In the street

I said
So slow it down
Little mama
You gotta work
For what you need
Cause the planes
Keep on flying
And your soldiers laying dead
In the street

I said
So slow it down
Little mama
You gotta work
For what you need
Cause the planes
Keep on flying
And your soldiers laying dead
Next to me

Slow it down
Slow it down
I said slow it down
Slow it down
Slow it down
Slow it down
