Bad Influence

There's a shadow at the end of the road and I think I'm casting it There's a bill at the edge of the bar and my shadow's ditching it There's a spark at the back of my brain and I think I'm losing it I'm losing it Had a late night in Nashville that ended in the back of a cop car They said, "Son, Is this really what you wanted to be when you grew up?" I said, "Sir if you only knew about my shadow And what a fun night this is for us" You're a bad influence on me But I don't wanna change a single thing (Ahh) You got me staring at the sun For me you're but the only one (Ahh) I remember us having a smoke on the corner of paradise We laughed at the irony of naming a beat down deli Paradise I thought, man what a metaphor for our state of denial But hey, they tell me money can't buy me love You're a bad influence on me But I don't wanna change a single thing (Ahh) You got me staring at the sun For me you're but the only one (Ahh)
