Miss Nectarine

(album: WEEDKILLER - 2023)

La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

Scared of what I'm feeling
The bruise of being fourteen
Got chlorine in our hair, my jaw is shaking in my mouth
Everybody's mama gossips 'bout us
In their ornamented houses
Can't pretend that I don't want you right here, right now

Both our homes are not safe for us
But I'll play hero and I'll save you from them
Both our homes are a tornado
Meet me quarter-past one at the farm down by our house, I'll be there

Say you wanna practice for the boys
Who won't you love like I will
They won't love you like I will
Guess I'll always be your second choice
They won't love you like I will
They won't love you like I will (Miss Nectarine)

La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (Jawbreaker sweet)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (All you, no me)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (No one's got me but me)
Ooh, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

Short shorts and stolen liquor
There's nothing I wouldn't give her
Cut my heart out for a kiss, she tastes like lemonade
I'm the one who took the fall
Your parents screamed and blamed it on me
Sent you off and prayed my gay away that Sunday

Both our homes are not safe for us
But I'll play hero and I'll save you from them
Both our homes are a tornado
Meet me quarter-past one at the farm down by our house, I'll be there

Say you wanna practice for the boys
Who won't you love like I will
They won't love you like I will
Guess I'll always be your second choice
They won't love you like I will
They won't love you like I will (Miss Nectarine)

La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (Jawbreaker sweet)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (All you, no me)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (No one's got me but me)
Ooh, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (Me, me, me, me, me, me, me)
