Sidewalk

Kenny brought the chalk and he's shaking the spray Bobby blows bubble gum, ready to play Sarah sticks her tongue out, she's got thumbs on her face We never understood why daddy loves television Lalalalalala Everybody's saying things that make a kid want to cry We just want to be outside, yeah It's '09 and so fine, yeah Sit back, soak up the sunshine, yeah And now I stay inside and watch the pixels on the screen But when I close my eyes I live in simple memories I swear now, I can almost see the end I just want to play in the sidewalk with my friends Cut the jump rope Bobby turns red Tripped up, he could have lost his head But Sarah don't quite like the sight of bloodshed But everybody knows it's all right We don't need kisses on little cuts Cause I count the bells of the ice cream truck We're outside, yeah It's '09 and so fine, yeah Six cones we'll get you next time, yeah And now I stay inside and watch the pixels on the screen But when I close my eyes I live in simple memories I swear now, I can almost see the end I just want to play in the sidewalk with my friends And now I'm just as cold as any ATM machine And I don't get the jokes in all the teenage magazines I know now That I'll never see the end And I just want to play in the sidewalk With my friends
