Fountains Of Wayne · Traffic And Weather [2007]
Channel Six news team
Breaking story bout a get-rich-quick scheme
One anchor turns and faces the other
Says it's time that I made you my lover
Chorus x2
Oooh we belong together
Like traffic and weather x3
Every twenty we got business reports
We're gonna take a break and then we're right back with sports
Hey Dan I like those shorts
I've never seen them before
I'd like em even better
Lying on my bedroom floor
Don't run away baby, hear what I say
You know I sit her reading to you day after day
Don't be scared, sit down in your chair
All I wanna do is soke your hair
Like traffic and weather x3
Ooh we belong together
Like traffic and weather x3
Chuck Scarborough turns to Sue Simmons
Says sugar you don't know what you're missin'
CHORUS
Traffic And Weather
