Pinch Me

Lyrics

It's the perfect time of year
 Somewhere far away from here
 I feel fine enough, I guess
 Considering everything's a mess
 There's a restaurant down the street
 Where hungry people like to eat
 I could walk but I'll just drive
 It's colder than it looks outside
 It's like a dream, you try to remember, but it's gone
 Then you try to scream, but it only comes out as a yawn
 When you try to see the world beyond your front door
 Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile
 When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
 Just to try to figure out what all this is for
 It's the perfect time of day
 To throw all your cares away
 Put the sprinkler on the lawn
 And run through with my gym shorts on
 Take a drink right from the hose
 Then change into some drier clothes
 Climb the stairs up to my room
 Sleep away the afternoon
 It's like a dream, you try to remember, but it's gone
 Then you try to scream, but it only comes out as a yawn
 When you try to see the world beyond your front door
 Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile
 When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
 Just to try to figure out what all this is for
 Pinch me, pinch me
 'Cause I'm still asleep
 Please, God, tell me
 That I'm still asleep
 On an evening such as this
 It's hard to tell if I exist
 If I packed the car and leave this town
 Will you notice that I'm not around
 I could hide out under there
 I just made you say 'Underwear'
 I could leave but I'll just stay
 All my stuff's here anyway
 It's like a dream, you try to remember, but it's gone
 Then you try to scream, but it only comes out as a yawn
 When you try to see the world beyond your front door
 Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile
 When you realize that a guy my size might take a while
 Just to try to figure out what all this is for
 Try to figure out what all this is for
 Try to see the world beyond your front door
 Try to figure out what all this is for
