Lyrics
The Next Step
It?s been three years
Through stained sheets and tears
Now you?ve decided you?re gonna move.
Mama?s nightstand, bookbag in hand
You say you?ve got nothing to lose.
So you?re leaving all you had behind you
And I know that I can?t change your mind
Things are gonna change round here, when you?re near
And I?m not gonna be the same man, at least that?s the plan
Cuz you?re moving in
You took my rock and roll pictures off the wall
And you always ask who it is when I get a call
You say its time for me to get a real job
You knew what to expect still you call me a slob
Chorus:
Time with you at home isn?t time together
And time with you at all seems like about forever
And you know (you know!) I used to have a lot more friends,
And you know (you know!) I?m waiting for the lease to end.
Well I?ll miss the sweet spot on the couch
And I?m wondering when you gonna shut your mouth
Used to watch the girls on Spanish TV (me gusta!)
Now its just lifetime and sex in the city, yeah yeah!
Chorus x2
