Archie

I met a boy called Archie

We were 17

He took me to a party by the cemetery

Money in the jukebox

Waited for our song

But we were in the garden

When Britney came on

He said

If you get a way out

Call me when you land

I've been making posters

Tryna start a band

Waiting on the weekend

There's nothing for me here

So don't you be a stranger

Don't you disappear

Don't you disappear

He used to call me weekly

Ask about the news

A shooting spree on 12th street

A crash in Syracuse

The band is fit to break, yeah

You're giving it 'til spring

You play it 'til they wake up

But no one wants to sing

He said

If you get a way out

Call me when you land

I've been making posters

Tryna start a band

Waiting on the weekend

There's nothing for me here

So don't you be a stranger

Don't you disappear

Don't you disappear

I won't hate you if you don't

I ain't waiting by the phone

But if you ever make that call

I'll meet you on the dance floor

If you get a way out

Call me when you land

I've been making posters

Tryna start a band

Waiting on the weekend

There's nothing for me here

So don't you be a stranger

Don't you disappear

Don't you disappear

Don't you disappear

Don't you disappear

Don't you disappear
