Suburbs Lyrics - The Narrative

Two dumb kids 

in a hot car 

They're saying "where we gonna go? 

We don't know but it's gonna be 

It's gonna be real far" 

One of them's saying that he's gonna be a big shot 

He's gonna be a millionaire 

The other one's gonna get married, 

buy a house in the suburbs 

and take it from there 

Two dumb kids 

in a hot car 

I used to think 

that I could be 

a big star 

Well lately I am thinking 

I'd like to be a millionaire 

Or married out in a real nice house 

in the suburbs 

anywhere... 

And now I am very scared 

And I am very scared 

And I am very scared 

And I am very scared 

So I dig out holes in the floor 

I've done this twice before 

I wish it helped me sleep 

But now the place looks terrible, 

and I can never leave 

There's no place to put my feet 

I know a girl out on Long Island 

While she works she's always smiling 

'cause she knows she might as well 

But it isn't where her heart is 

and she's gonna be an artist 

just as soon... 

just as soon as something sells 

And if you see her in the summer 

she might look a little younger 

'cause her skin, 

I said her skin gets pretty tan 

But if you wanna take her home 

you better really be alone 

because she'll 

she'll clean you right out, man 

She'll clean you right out, man 

And I am very scared 

(she'll clean you right out, man) 

And I am very scared 

(she'll clean you right out, man) 

And I am very scared 

(she'll clean you right out, man) 

And I am very scared 

(she'll clean you right out, man)
