mainline, put my life on the line
i bet that marty's gonna get the girl
is marty gonna get the girl tonight? oh
is marty gonna get the girl?
ya hear the clang clang clangin of the stop sing swingin
and the angels singing in his head
and she's right there waiting and he's so far reaching
cause he's thinkin' bout what his friend said, when he said
mainline, put my life on the line
i bet that marty's gonna get the girl
is marty gonna get the girl tonight? oh
is marty gonna get the girl?

and since im in the mindset of bein' reflective
i didn't want the day to end, to give perspective
we could've talked for hours and hours
but i figured anytime would do
but- once we were on the highway
i figured that i didn't feel the same way that i used to anymore

how did it come to this
when did i watch it disappear
guild of an hourglass
won for achievement in career
bone from a mandible
struck in the passion of the deed
poor little powerball
dating a sargent of his creed
in come the atom bombs
stifling around in six inch heels
tan as an apricot
thought you would know just how it feels
tied to the mantlepiece
bought by an unsuspecting beau
lost in a submarine
stunk of a name i used to know
brave like a marching band
mean like a pinecone in the rain
car full of baby teeth
old as the wrinkles on my brain
starting an argument
takin an escalator south
sung with a caramel
stuck to the rooftop of my mouth
