Butch Walker - State-Line Fireworks (with Sue Clayton) Lyrics



Butch Walker - State-Line Fireworks (with Sue Clayton) Lyrics




[ Featuring Sue Clayton ]

I swore I'd never do it
Now the emperor's the fool
High school wasn't good to me
And it was even worse for you

It's as good as it got
Some kinda masochistic knot
Before the world got real
And the happiness was not

And ooooh
Paper lanterns from the dance
And ooooh
It only takes one more chance

Grab your coat it's kinda cold outside
I'll scrape the ice off the car before we get inside
We'll buy some State-line fireworks at the border tonight
And remember like the Fourth of July

I think I heard you found a new one
In the fall of 96
Did the love end?
(Guy): Yes
(Girl): Why?
(Guy): No
(Girl): we don't have to talk about it

Playing House makes me so numb
I still barely know his son
Locks himself inside his room with the mirror playing dress-up with his guns

And oooooh
That winter no one could outrun
And oooooh
I shoulda left when I was young

Grab your coat it's kinda cold outside
I'll scrape the ice off the car before we get inside
We'll buy some State-line fireworks at the border tonight
And remember like the Fourth of July

And oooooh
I can feel that winter come
And oooooh
We coulda got out while we're young

Grab your coat it's kinda cold outside
I'll scrape the ice off the car before we get inside
We'll buy some State-line fireworks at the border tonight
And remember like the Fourth of July
