You know I do my best thinking when I'm flying down the bridge, |
|
Humming to myself and kicking up my kicks |
|
Jiggling all around half-afraid for my life, |
|
I hope i don't crash like that night last summer, |
|
Back when the bridge was just a wooden path, |
|
Bounding around like he said it was 1956 |
|
I thought I'd learn from my mistakes, |
|
I thought he'd learn from my mistakes, |
|
I thought you'd give me the right advice, |
|
I thought he'd let me in for one last time. |
|
The planks rattle around like an old-timey movie, |
|
In tube-top and shorts that Vice called "pull-me-down" |
|
she's got kind of a native vibe before that was so cool |
|
She's got kind of a native vibe before I even knew who was who |
|
And he's ignoring me like it's 2001 |
|
Why keep time travelling if it doesn't get better |
|
On the second time around |
|
Why keep time travelling if it doesn't get better |

I thought I'd learn from my mistakes, |

I thought he'd let me in for one last time. |
|
I wore the same outfit on the day the Hasid |
|
Followed me in his car along Park, not Avenue, |
|
But the one in Brooklyn, on an early Sunday morning, |
|
I'm carrying an umbrella and talking on the phone |
|
My mom said run, and I ran, |
|
I crashed down Baker, cut my head and my knees |
|
The ambulance was called by a guy his friend called Guru |
|
They were visiting from California, and I swear they, |
|
I swear they, I swear they, |
|
I swear they saved my life |
|
I thought I'd learn from my mistakes, |
|
I thought he'd learn from my mistakes, |
|
I thought you'd give me the right advice, |
|
I thought he'd let me in for one last time |
