You get in your Shiny Car
In the middle of the night
And wonder where you’re going
Where are you going?
You get in your foreign car
Every single night
And the wheels start turning
But there’s no returning
I want to see how fast you go
You’re gonna chase that neon light
You’re gonna flash those head lights on
Nipping at the heels of the daylight
Standing still
In slow motion at a green light
You get in your Shiny Car
When the dust settles slow
You wonder where your head is
You always forget it
You get in your foreign car
The American Dream
It didn’t get you nowhere
So you just keep going
I want to see how fast you go
You’re gonna chase that neon light
You’re gonna flash those head lights on
Nipping at the heels of the good life
Standing still
In slow motion at a green light

Walking around money
In my pocket
I spent too much
Ain’t nobody gonna stop it
No up and downs, honey
We’re gonna make it
Just look around
Cause life is a vacation
Hot weather
Cool breeze
Put it on a credit card
And drive off down the street
Feels good
In the sun
I’d like to talk
But I gotta run
The cheaper the thrill
In Beverly Hills
How lonely I get
In Beverly Hills
I weigh it out exactly
And then I drop it
I microdose
Ain’t nobody gonna stop it
Eleven Bentleys
Lined up on the street
I took a Polaroid
But lost it in a card game
It never rains in Southern California
Only in my mind
Like Beverly Hills
How lonely I get
In Beverly Hills
The cheaper the thrill
In Beverly Hills
The more that you pay
The cheaper the thrill
In Beverly Hills
How lonely I get
In Beverly Hills
How lonely I get
In Beverly Hills
How lonely the days are

Foolish Game

I've got a bad habit
Know I should break it
Go back to who I was
Make no more mistaking
It's on a daily basis
And when it happens
The facts all turn to fiction
I quit reacting
It's hard to know how far to go
When the beat in your chest
It won't slow down
There is always some distress
Everyone's a mess in a place like this
A place like this
Hallelujah, you saved my life
You saved me
You saved my life from a Foolish Game
I've got no shame
No shame
I wonder how I got here
I don't remember
My hands are tied behind my back
I did not surrender
It's all a dark illusion
Part of the process
Until I hold you darling
I can't forget that it's hard to know
How far to go
When the beat in your chest
It won't slow down

Fantasy

I got a feeling just the other day
On my way to sell another good man’s soul
I couldn’t look away
I just had to stop and say “you ought to go back home”
It’s happening right here
Something in the atmosphere
Robots on the telephone
A voice without a face
We cannot communicate
Got to find the way on my own
Wake up in a dream
Something like a Fantasy
Nothing’s out of reach
It’s not reality
Wake up in a dream
This Fantasy can’t go on forever
I hope that we never wake up in a dream
It’s not reality
Oh no
I caught a feeling just the other night- wasn’t right
Sent a chill right down to my bones
Together in my dreams although it still seems
When I wake up I’m still alone
How does it feel to really live your dreams?
Could it be real or just a fantasy?
It’s meant to be
Wake up in a dream
Something like a Fantasy
Nothing’s out of reach
It’s not reality
Wake up in a dream
This Fantasy can’t go on forever
I hope that we never wake up in a dream
It’s not reality
Oh no
Hello?
You’ve reached the Fantasy hotline
For a Fantasy, press one
For a dream, press two
For reality, press three
If you’d like to make a call
Please hang up and try again
Wake up in a dream
Something like a Fantasy
Nothing’s out of reach
It’s not reality
Wake up in a dream
This Fantasy can’t go on forever
I hope that we never wake up in a dream
It’s not reality
Oh no

Tangerine

Is it enough to be loved
It’s something I need you to know
This could be us
Can’t go wrong
Feel the Tangerines in your arms
Never mind
Never had the time
The way I feel has never been so real
Take me away to a tropical place
Out in the open
Now we’re not afraid
Tell me you want me
Tell me you need me
So now that you’re lonely
You know you don’t have to be
Is it enough to be loved
It’s something I need you to know
This could be us
Can’t go wrong
Feel the Tangerines in your arms
I know it’s hard for you
We break apart when we’re like ice that’s floating in water
Now I know we’re back to where we started
And we’re broken hearted
It’s just a little part of something larger than us
Tell me you want me
Tell me you need me
So now that you’re lonely
You know you don’t have to be
I know it’s hard for you
We break apart when we’re like ice that’s floating in water
Now I know we’re back to where we started
And we’re broken hearted
It’s just a little part of something larger than us
It feels like the first time
Just want it to feel right
And though we made our mistakes
We can try another way now
It’s better to realize
It’s better to know
The taste of a real life
Just let it go in the breeze
When you feel the tangerines now
Is it enough to be loved
It’s something I need you to know
This could be us
Can’t go wrong
Feel the Tangerines in your arms
Feel the Tangerines
Feel the Tangerines
Feel the Tangerines
Feel the Tangerines
