lyrics

I drive a used car in gunmetal grey and there’s a rattle on the passenger side
Oh but we don’t hear it when the radio plays and besides, we’re too high to drive
But this road it leads to the fairground I wanna win something I don’t need
Oh the prizes they hold and not diamonds or gold but for a few hours you’ll feel like a queen

Tell me all your secret plans and I might just tell you mine
One day I’ll buy you and island and we’ll live out our lives
Right now I got 2.47 and you say you got 3.65 we’ll that’s just enough,
to buy ourselves some time

Tell me a story from when you were young, I think too much of the future
The rest of our lives have just begun there’s a truth you don’t hear enough do ya
Well you can wash yourself in the river, you can hang yourself out to dry but
Can you stare yourself out in the mirror without feeling like you just might cry

I see you trying to hide your tattoos and I see you hiding your smile
I see you holding on for something new cause lord knows it’s been quite a while
So meet me tonight at the fairgrounds place all of your bets on me
You shine like gold in that dress you stole well they say the best things are free.

Tell me all your secret plans and I might just tell you mine
One day I’ll buy you and island and we’ll live out our lives
Right now I got 2.67 and you say you got 3.65 we’ll that’s just enough
to buy ourselves some time

I’m not good with money but I know how to spend my time
