Slow Mo

(albüm: All The Faint Lights - 2009)

Timmy's walking tall with his best laid plans
Taking Penny Lane to the sixth grade dance
And he's bringing flowers

He's looking pretty sharp in his dad's red tie
Gonna hold her hand if he's not too shy
He's bringing flowers
Don't every girl love flowers?

Looking 'round for Penny for the slow song at the end
And he found her looking pretty in the arms of his best friend

They were dancing in slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow ow mo
Slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow ow mo

Jimmy's losing sleep 'cause he thinks it's time
Ever since he met her at the five 'n dime
He's been seeing Jenny

He's waiting for the moment when he makes his move
Had to plan it out 'cause he's not real smooth

But he holds her steady
Ain't every boy born ready?

Standing on the front porch; he's about to be the man
I swear he had it 'til her mom pulled up in the mini van up the driveway in
Slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo
Slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo

Like a car crash at the race
A pie right to the face
Falling down the stairs
Finding out that she cares

Don't it last forever when you never saw it coming at all?
You better take a chair and prepare for the wrecking ball, coming at you in

Slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo
Slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo, slow ow ow mo
