Lyrics
Hollister
Sabrina Shelfer Blanton
copyright 2006
Somebody please tell me why the hell I?m here
I haven?t been home in over a year
And my aching head is all I?ve got
From last night?s half price mystery shots
Yeah, I spent it all right down to my last dollar
So I?m stuck in Hollister
Hollister ain?t good for me
It?s like a mama?s one bad seed
And getting trapped is my fear
Cause it?s written on all the faces here
And my pride won?t let me go and call my father
So I?m stuck in Hollister
Chorus:
You can pawn your soul for a moment?s thrill
Then hit the ground in a fervent kneel
And pray for grace that you just don?t deserve
This town might drive you to the brink
But all at once you stop and think
Each day up top is another lesson learned
No need to kick and scream, cry and holler
When you?re stuck in Hollister
You know that you have reached the end
When the laundry mat?s your closest friend
And you like the sound of cycle two
From that one double loader they bought brand new
Even watchin? clothes go round is not a bother
When you?re stuck in Hollister
Where the Audi store is a pizza joint
The fish are scarce down at the point
The beer you get is served luke warm
At the watering hole where the locals swarm
I?ve heard there?s icy mugs over yonder
But I?m stuck in Hollister
Chorus
