The 17th

When you come home

The neighbors look at you funny

Thank someone, I don't know, maybe God

That you're not new money

So, I took the stairs

And lock the world away

And then, it's phone off

For the rest of the day

The afternoon is peppered with regret

And all the things that you're tryna forget

Oh, just know that you're not on your own

No, you're not on your own

Yellow Lambretta is knocked on its side

It's begging you to steal it and go for a ride

Just let me know and I'll meet you in the 17th

And you can bore me again

With how much you love Halloween

How much you love Halloween

Your afternoons are peppered with regret

And all the things that you wanna forget

Well, just know that you're not on your own

No, you're not on your own

If you've risen just the second that the sun goes down

You wash away your sins and feel the pull of the town

Know that you're not on your own

No, you're not on your own

Everyone can hear you

But nobody's listening

We've got another wedding

And another Christening

We have to go too

Before we get to the summer

Might have to back load up

And do another runner

Like someone I used to know

But please, don't go there

Because we're having such a good time

Having such a good time

We're having such a good time

Having such a good time

The Irish bar

Is kicking out for the first time

It seems nobody's playing Shanghai

Like last night

So, let's find that place

With the pink neon sign

The one that points to you and says

Do you wanna be mine?

Everyone can hear you

But nobody's listening

I wanna be someone

But haven't got the discipline

A perfect picture

For everyone to see

Never get emotional

Get another degree

Like someone I used to know

But please, don't go there

'Cause we're having such a good time

Having such a good time

We're having such a good time

Having such a good time
