Sunshine State Lyrics
[Chorus]
It is finally over
No more mothering
These poor people do not have time for that
Why are we still standing here
Looking around?
What is done
Is done
Is done
And that is that
[Verse 1]
If you get scared you can wait in the hall
Step back too far and you're not fighting at all
Get a hold of yourself!
And here we are
Yeah, a zero dollar bill
An eye for an eye
A can of spray paint up in outer space
I am going to the sunshine state
And there are big decisions to make
Along the way
When you see him
You stand up tall
Stand all scared and you're not standing at all
Get a hold of yourself!
[Verse 2]
I am shaking
Like I am watching
The last episode of the news
All I did was paint a picture
I will never say I'm sorry
It's for you
Together we were so inventive
Be careful who you share yourself with
I seen it in the subway station
I seen it creeping in the grass
Sometime, somewhere
We're gonna cut that snake in half
[Chorus]
And it is finally over
No more mothering
Those poor people do not
Have time for that
Why are we still standing here
Looking around?
What is done
Is done
Is done
And that is that
