Masquerade

I will chase you all around
Keep one ear pressed to your club house
You should let me paint your nails black
You let our shoulders touch when you sat in the back

Fending off mold
Where you've forgotten
You left the fruits of all our labor bruised and rotten

Got a masquerade on the Fourth of July
I sure do hope you're coming by yourself
Got a masquerade on the Fourth of July
And usually there's no boys allowed

You will spin me on your back
Scrounge for change to buy us snacks
Sneak us past land mines of sleeping friends
Listen to fontanelle til we both go deaf

And I'm terrified
It just doesn't feel like time
And I pray we rewind
Guess the hero takes a dive, stops making art, moves on with life
Didn't you get the latest rewrite?

(You may have heard this one before
The man got burned, the man got bored)

Well it seems like such a waste to have you go end up this way
They really made a man out of my friend
I don't like you better at all
I prefer our name on greenroom walls
Roman candle fights
Try to burn me one more time

Masquerade on the Fourth of July
I sure do hope you're coming by yourself
Masquerade on the Fourth of July
Usually there's no boys allowed

You know I'm terrified and I'm starting to feel the time
And I pray we rewind
Guess the hero takes a wife, goes door to door selling steak knives
Didn't you get the latest rewrite?
Didn't you get the latest rewrite?
Didn't you get the latest rewrite?
Last rewrite. Last rewrite

Masquerade on the Fourth of July
