Above Ground Swimming Pools

(album: Nickels For Your Nightmares - 2000)

I don't mind, lulls in conversations
I don't dislike an uncomfortable pause
An awkward moment, is to be savored
Not unlike obscene telephone calls
I don't mind a few giant cliches, and
There's nothing wrong with a little bragging
I don't despise grandious displays
And outlandish disguises that we can hide in
I don't mind holes punched in the drywall
I see no reason not to park on the front lawn
And I approve of above ground swimming pools
And staying up until a half hour past dawn

Riding high in a goddamn limousine
Steven Tyler right beside me
I'm riding high in a goddamn limousine
Steven Tyler right beside me

I'm drinking drinks that are natural and green
Not a goddamn one that gets me high
I'm flagging a cab and I meet Ozzy Osbourne
And the rest of his crew and their supplies
But I see Lou Reed and hes flashing an eight ball
Hes had more than a couple brews
Lou seems to have it all
Under control this fall
And nothing he hears is ever news
I call Alice Cooper up to
Have a quick game
I'm pretty good on the back nine
Alice cuts it short
His girlfriend is already late
And shes gotta be to work on time
You say you love me
I say you don't
You say you need me
I promise you won't

Its all that we have
Its all that we have
Its all that you have
Its all that you have

Riding high in a goddamn limousine
Steven Tyler right beside me
I'm drinking drinks that are natural and green
Not a god damn one that gets me high
He keeps on driving and I'm listening to him talk
Let me out at
The next stop
And then there's Ozzy and hes flagging me down
Wayne and Garth are right beside him
You say you love me
I say you don't
Maybe you love me
Maybe you won't

Its all that we have
Its all that we have
Its all that you have
Its all that you have

You said you loved me
I said you don't
You said you need me
I promise you won't

Its all that we have
Its all that we have
Its all that you have
Its all that you have
