You To Thank Lyrics - Songs For Silverman - Ben Folds

By the time the buzz was wearing off 

We were standing out on the sidewalk 

With our tattoos that looked like rings 

In the hot Nevada sun 

Kids piled high, our moms and dads shook hands 

In a party of Polaroid friends 

Rented a pool and hired a band 

Maybe they knew more then we knew 

Cause they danced and drank 

While we jumped off the deep end 

Oh I've got you to thank 

For this 

Christmas came around 

Yeah and everything was going to crap 

And our moms and dads not a clue to be had 

Yeah we put on a pretty good act 

And they seemed to all need to believe it 

So we danced and smiled and paddled hard beneath it 

Oh I've got you to thank 

For this 

You can't say you've never had a doubt 

And smoked it down but really wanted out 

By the time the buzz was wearing off 

We were standing out on the sidewalk 

With our tattoos that looked like rings 

In the hot Nevada sun 

And they won't fade 

I've got you to thank
