Wendy Darling

We beat Chrono Trigger in a week
They said it couldn't be done
But there's not much to do
In a wheat field town with your parents around
And I never told you
I never told you
I never told you
That it broke me then and I'm still broke now

Well, the Clearwater River stays cold
It stays cold all summer
When the other ones warm
But we needed to feel alive
And I knew it happened
Like Wendy Darling
When there was no wonderful place I would not leave behind

Down the street to go to Max's Party
Drive like Magnum's Ferrari
Throwing up your mom's locked Bacardi
The whole school thought the vodka had gone bad
Signed off on your loans for college
Best friend took the anabolics
Worked up my nerve to call you
The old men say the decades don't pass slow

The old men say the decades don't pass slow
The old men say, the old men say

Learned the backseat lessons
In the white church van
While everyone was inside
Dropping pizza on the floor
And we, too, have seen it
The surf, the shore
Listening though we land no more

Down the street to go to Max's Party
Drive like Magnum's Ferrari
Throwing up your mom's locked Bacardi
The whole school thought the vodka had gone bad
Signed off on your loans for college
Best friend took the anabolics
Worked up my nerve to call you
The old men say the decades don't pass slow

Down the street to go to Max's Party
Drive like Magnums Ferrari
Throwing up your mom's locked Bacardi
The whole school thought the vodka had gone bad
Nothing to say if you can't come with me
Cross-eyed, not seeing clearly
Worked up my nerve to call you
The old men say the decades don't pass slow

The old men say the decades don't pass slow
The old men say the decades don't pass slow
