1992
How you did it, I don't know
Locked in the mainstream
On the big screen
Now the world hangs beneath your brow
Just to see you in a sequin gown
Slow down
I was reticent, unlike you
You were sprightly
1992
Was nothing you wouldn't do
But me, maybe
You'd have turned me down
Slowed you down
And you
Couldn't get it
Don't walk
Won't forget it
Behind shadows
The 90s egos feign good taste
I can see you previously standing
Over the way
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
Armed with a double-barrelled name
Californ-I-A
In the gold rush days
You staked a prenuptial claim
On the A list
Just for going down
Slow down
And you
Couldn't get it
Don't walk
Won't forget it
Behind shadows
Your childhood heroes play your games
I can see you previously standing
Over the way
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
You're gone
And I'm not like you
Got a bird's eye view
Of your fly by past
From a looking glass
Up your ass
Yeah, I'm not like you
I can see you previously standing
Not like you
Over the way
Not like you
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
I'm not like you
I can see you previously standing
Not like you
Over the way
Not like you
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
Locked in the mainstream
On the big screen
Now the world hangs beneath your brow
Just to see you in a sequin gown
Slow down
I was reticent, unlike you
You were sprightly
1992
Was nothing you wouldn't do
But me, maybe
You'd have turned me down
Slowed you down
And you
Couldn't get it
Don't walk
Won't forget it
Behind shadows
The 90s egos feign good taste
I can see you previously standing
Over the way
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
Armed with a double-barrelled name
Californ-I-A
In the gold rush days
You staked a prenuptial claim
On the A list
Just for going down
Slow down
And you
Couldn't get it
Don't walk
Won't forget it
Behind shadows
Your childhood heroes play your games
I can see you previously standing
Over the way
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
You're gone
And I'm not like you
Got a bird's eye view
Of your fly by past
From a looking glass

Yeah, I'm not like you
I can see you previously standing
Not like you
Over the way
Not like you
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
I'm not like you
I can see you previously standing
Not like you
Over the way
Not like you
If I could see you briefly blowing me away, again
