Lyrics
Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh When I was young and stupid (Oh) My love left to be a rock and roll star (Oh) He told me, "Please, don't worry" (Oh) Wise little smile that spoke so safely (Oh) He booked a one-way ticket (Oh) Out west, that's where they make it (Oh) Six kids stuck in a bedsit (Oh) To sunswept poolside riches (Oh) (Oh, oh) He met a girl who wore Versace (Oh) Pink feather coats and jumbo jewelry​ (Oh) Gonna be a hoop phenomenon (Oh) He's gonna be Hakeem Olajuwon (Oh) He's got a gold Camaro (Oh) He said over the payphone (Oh) I try to keep my cool but (Oh) My life turns in slow motion (Oh) Bye-bye, baby blue I wish (Oh) you could see the wicked truth Caught up (Oh) in a rush, it's killing you Screaming (Oh) at the sun you blow into Curled up (Oh) in a grip when we were us Fingers (Oh) in a fist like you might run I settle (Oh) for a ghost I never knew Super (Oh) paradise I held on to But I settle for a ghost Where I was from in NOLA No one (Oh) left to be a rock and roll star (Oh) He'd stay and treat his lady (Oh) Give everything to his new baby (Oh) I miss him, don't you blame me? (Oh) That boy went stone cold crazy (Oh) Caught up in camera lust (Oh) He's chasing that pappy pipe dream (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) (Oh) I know you don't but I- I know you don't but I still try My thunder shook him down My thunder came and shook him down That girl is gone but I- That girl is gone but I still try I think it's over now The bullet hit but maybe (Oh) not I feel so f*cking numb It hits my head and I feel (Oh) numb My body's looking wrong My body's looking wrong (Oh) My body's looking wrong (Oh) Bye-bye, baby blue I wish (Oh) you could see the wicked truth Caught up (Oh) in a rush, it's killing you Screaming (Oh) at the sun you blow into Curled up in a grip when we were us Fingers (Oh) in a fist like you might run I settle (Oh) for a ghost I never knew Super (Oh) paradise I held on to But I settle (Oh) for a ghost (Oh, oh, oh, oh) (Oh, oh, oh, oh) (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
