Got a wishbone drying on the windowsill in my kitchen Just in case I wake up and realise I've chosen wrong I love this life that I have, the vine hanging over the door And the dog who comes when I call But I wonder sometimes what I'm missing But my hot blood's been burning for so many summers now It's time to cool it down Wherever that leads 'Cause all the beautiful girls, they will fade like the roses And all the times they will change, it'll all come around I don't know Maybe I'm just stoned at the nail salon Maybe I'm just stoned at the nail salon again Got a memory of waiting in your bed wearing only my earrings We'd go dancing all over the landmines under our town But the sun has to rise, when it does, we'll divide up the papers Two former hell-raisers I'm still crazy for you, babe Well, my hot blood's been burning for so many summers now It's time to cool it down Wherever that leads 'Cause all the music you loved at 16 you'll grow out of And all the times, they will change, it'll all come around I don't know, maybe I'm just Maybe I'm just stoned at the nail salon again Oh, make it good Oh-oh-oh, make it good I'd ride and I'd ride on the carousel 'round and 'round Forever if I could But it's time to cool it down Whatever that means Spend all the evenings you can with the people who raised you 'Cause all the times, they will change, it'll all come around I don't know Maybe I'm just stoned at the nail salon Maybe I'm just stoned at the nail salon again
