Explode Lyrics - Folklore - Nelly Furtado

Peso..Joga..Ginga..Hoda 

Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun 

With a lighter and some hairspray 

Smoking in the girls' room 

Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's 

By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody 

Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some 

Now we look back and see that she didn't know how 

We never thought that we'd get caught up 

Stuck in the teenage waste 

As we explode 

As we explode 

Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart 

Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled 

Slip the acid on your tongue rooftop mall parkade 

We couldn't get enough 

Then count the stars and the ten million woes 

Just you and the universe judging each other 

We never knew that we'd get caught up 

Stuck in the teenage waste 

As we explode 

As we explode 

As we explode 

As we let go 

Peso..Hoda..Ginga..Joda 

It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong 

Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar 

More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell 

At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break 

Such a good, good story to tell 

You bully, you break, you bully, you break 

You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake 

You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning 

And it's wild 

We never thought that we'd get caught up 

Stuck in the teenage waste 

As we explode 

As we explode 

As we explode 

As we let go 

We're counting the stars 

We're counting the stars 

We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far 

We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars 

We're not very far, we're not very far 

And it's you and me in the open air 

It's truth or dare, we don't care 

We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
