"Speeding cars", The Graduation

Here's the day you hoped would never come.

Don't feed me violins,

just run with me through rows of speeding cars.

The papercuts, the cheating lovers,

the coffee's never strong enough ,

I know you think it's more than just bad luck. There, there, baby,

it's just text book stuff,

it's in the ABC of growing up. Now, now, darling,

don't loose your head,

cuz none of us were angels,

and you know I love you, yeah.

Sleeping pills know sleeping dogs. Lie never far enough away,

glistening in the cold sweat of guilt.

I've watched you slowly winding down for years, you can't keep on like this,

now's a bad a time as any.

It's ok by me, it was along time ago. There, there, baby,

it's just text book stuff,

it's in the ABC of growing up. Now, now, darling,

don't kill yourself,

cuz none of us were angels and you know I love you, yeah.
