Testo Our Whole Lives

kids are ripping in their sugar packets
townies wearing ancient starter jackets
i?m not accused to put bills into the basket
praying that they?re cool when I come pick up the packets

tonight I?m gonna have a really good time
but i wanna go to heaven on the day i die
gonna make like a preemptive strike the five thirty mass early saturday night

ring ring ring goes the telephone
tell my little lambs that i?m on my way home
stop by the shop and get a bottle to go
maybe something stronger from the right guys on the corner

sing sing singing the song we know
saint theresa told me you should rattle them bones
now you?re nodding off to the dial tone
kim starts blowing on the saxophone

cheerleaders dreaming quarterbacks
jock chills got them jumping jacks
goth girls go from vampire bats they wanna draw a little blood from the pack

well i don't go much for that spooky show
i like the lights new york temple tracks
damn right I believe in love
cause i?ve been in love and i love right back

at, at, at, now where you at
there?s kids coming around with a matching backpack
i didn?t know that you could dance like that
i?m gonna have to ask you to take two steps back

sing sing sing every song we know
blowing out the speakers in your stereo
now you?re not talking about that guy back home
maybe this is better if you want you can sleep over

good guys but we can?t be good all the time
we?re good guys but we can?t be good our whole lives
we?re good guys but we can?t be good every night
now father i have sinned and i wanna do it all again tonight

kids are ripping in their sugar packets
making guitars out of tennis rackets
and it?s been getting so the hardest part
is trying to talk some sense and to spark some hearts

yes, yes, yes gonna make tourettes (?)
we'll leave the band under the field with their cigarettes
now they?re waving them around to treat some troubled hearts
the band sounded stiff no one?s even listening

mean mean mean she?s the queen of green
she's gots her surface all sparkling
she rubs that in until her fingers bleed
she was giving off her light on the first night that she came to me

good guys really can?t been good all the time
we?re good guys but can?t be good our whole lives
we?re good guys but we can?t be good every night
we?re good guys but can?t be good our whole lives
she was giving off the light on the first night that she came to me
father I have sinned, but I?m gonna do it all again eventually
