I'm just gonna stand with my bag hanging off my left arm I'm just gonna walk home kicking stones at parked cars But I had a great night 'cause you kept rubbing against my arm I'm just gonna stand with my bag hanging off my left arm Get me a drink I get drunk off one sip Just so I can adore you I want the entire street out of town Just so I can be alone with you Now go when your ready my heads Getting heavy pressed against your arm I adore you All of my money is spent on these nights just so we can hang out Spacing in and out of these dresses I wanna be found By you, found by you Get me a drink I get drunk off one sip Just so I can adore you I want the entire street out of town Just so I can be alone with you Now go when your ready my heads Getting heavy pressed against your arm I adore you, I adore you I kick the gutter in tight shorts, basketball courts Watch me, watch him talk to girls I'm known as a right hand slugger Anybody else wanna touch my lover Get me a drink I get drunk off one sip Just so I can adore you I want the entire street out of town Just so I can be alone with you Now go when your ready my heads Getting heavy pressed against your arm Just to adore you, I adore you
