Folks Are Gone

I saw you at the mall this weekend
It was pretty cool to see your face
A lot of things have changed here, girlfriend
Since you left, getting my own place
Everybody's still in school
I think you'll find that nothing's changed
My mom was asking how you're doing
She still thinks we should get married
It's alright well, I really wanna see you tonight
I can't believe I get to see you tonight
'Cause my folks are gone
You got a job with Northern Power
Your hat is where you lay your home
You figure how to work the shower
Then you know it's time to go
You said that you can tell I'm happy
And that I should look you up when I come to town
It'll be a while till we come visit
Ain't no better time than now
It's alright Sergeant Pepper and the Ghoulies tonight
We can listen to your Slippery When Wet, after Billy Bragg
You never go home, this is what you found
I can't get sad 'cause you're never around all the kids in the alleyway
They don't listen to what the mob say
But are they ready for a good time?
Yeah, I think so baby
I can hear da brudders yelling out
I saw you at the mall last weekend
