about

for Katie & Scott

lyrics

She's a lovely girl
And she's mad at him
He's a lovely boy
And she's mad at him

You can see in her eyes
From the things she says
That he still don't know
What bad he did

'Cause he moves a little bit slow
He pours like grenadine
She moves way too fast
Drives eighty-five and lives a little bit mean

Well they go to school
And they play the part
And she eased her cool
As he tried to start

But the engine light
Did not come on
Then it soon burned bright
And it burned real long

'Cause he moves a little bit slow
He pours like burgundy
She moves way too fast
Drives eighty-five and lives a little bit free

Well they bought a house
And they bought, bought a brand-new van
But they still drive around
In their old sedan

Well they lived real long
And they lived good
And she still gets mad
As well she should

But he treats her right
And he cools her down
In the dark of night
On the edge of town

'Cause he moves a little bit slow
He pours like cremolade*
She moves way too fast
Drives eighty-five, and sits in the cool, cool shade

* = somewhere between remoulade and cremolada
