She was waiting at the station
He was getting off the Red Line
He didn't have a transfer
So he had to hop over the barriers again
Well the cop saw him rushing through
He said "girl you don't know how much I missed you but we'd better run because I haven't got the funds to pay this fine."
She said "fine"
So they ran out of the station and jumped onto a bus
With two 5 day transfers and two cans of Arizona
And he said "you look mighty nice"
Well she was wearing a skirt
And he thought she looked nice
And yes, she didn't really care about anything else
Because she only wanted him to think that she looked nice
And he did
But he was looking at her, yeah all funny in the eye
She said "come on boy tell me what you're thinking, don't be shy."
He said alright, "I'll try
All the stars up in the sky
And the leaves in the trees
All the broken bits that make you jump up
And grassy bits in between
All the matter in the world is how much I love you."
She said "what?"
He said "let me try this once more"
"Birds can fly so high
And they can shit on your head
And they can almost fly into your eye
And make you feel so scared.
But when you look at them
And you see that they're beautiful
That's how I feel about you"
She said "what?"
He said "you"
She said "what are you talking about?"
He said "you, listen"
"Birds can fly so high
And they can shit on your head
And they can almost fly into your eye
And make you feel so scared.
But when you look at them
And you see that they're beautiful
That's how I feel about you"
She said "thanks, I love you too"
He said "cool"
