Perfect Teeth

Motion City Soundtrack · I Am The Movie [2002]

Someday I fear I will be rescued from the boredom line

With lack of memory I fail to question why

With perfect sound you bring me down hey I'm not listening

You're through killing me with all your facts and late night therapy

Like "Paul's boutique" on empty streets parked and

Waiting for lights to turn on for the good luck

And drunk on your parents' favorite wine



All the things I remember

Were they worth writing down

Bury me in memories of CK1 and tight white T's

Like air guitar in muscle cars with "perfect teeth"

The way we are



Back in '95 more def than alive

I wrote the screenplay to lack of direction

Late night movie "dates" with girls who skate and I just can't relate

I'm through with school 'cause I broke the rules

Now I work for the man and I'm drunk once again

Watching reruns of night court on cable TV



All the things I remember

Were they worth writing down

Bury me in memories of CK1 and tight white T's

Like air guitar in muscle cars with "perfect teeth"

The way we are



Wake up, thought that everybody loved me

Wake up, thought that everybody cared

Wake up, thought that I might have the strength to carry on

Wake up, turns out that I'm barely barely holding on



Hey hey hey it's been quite a long time

I I I don't miss last November

Alright, yeah it's time for a high-five

Hey hey hey it's been quite a long time



Someday I fear I will be rescued from the boredom line

With lack of memory I fail to question why

Why?
