Quest for the Cup Lyrics

[Intro]
You're the thrill of a million
Walking down the sidewalk
Feel like an alarm clock
Woke up and dressed up
Don't look like a t-shirt
I feel just like a donuts
Come and take the trash out
What's the use of crying
Don't look like a bummer
Feel just like a burger
Can I make him like me
Do you feel like I do
Don't look like a slip skirt
I feel just like a poser
I don't look like an angel
I GUESS I'll put some jeans on
Make my lips look redder
True you still look better

[Verse]
This is for Lisa
Ran away to the west
Faxed my mom for the test
Couldn't stay for the rest
Then I met him Jess
He is just the best
We kissed right under a tree
I felt so salty free
I felt so salty free
I felt nothing like me
I felt so salty free

[Sample]
All your dreams will come true
All my dreams came true
But now, I have a bunch of other dreams
Ta-dum-dum
It's gotta be hot, hot

[Outro]
I felt so s-a-lty free
