Pretty Petty

It's pretty petty that we said we'd make our mark

But we're staring in the dark at what could be anything

Turn the lights on and look into my eyes

And tell me what you think you see

I think I hide it on the sleeves

Of the ten shirts that I'm in

You are young and innocent

Please stop now while your ahead

And you say it doesn't matter but it does

You're taking every shortcut

For a taste of what you want

I'm confused that maybe I might lose

In a generation I cant tell a look

From a year these days.

The same ending to every single song

Yeah you're doing whats been done

With your dad's trust fund

When it should be from the heart

Please ignore the trends and charts

And maybe pick up your guitar

And you say it doesn't matter but it does (it does)

You're taking every shortcut

For a taste of what you want

You say it doesn't matter but it does

You want it all so badly

But you can't be serious

Oh no! Oh no!

Oh no! Oh no!

Oh no you can't be serious

Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!

I have to get this off my chest

Why is it cool to be depressed

I took a long, hot shower

And thought this thing over

When the going gets tough

Well the tough stay sober

But I keep my composure

Even when I'm all tangled

And battered and rattled

Like a love triangle

What kind of mood is this you're in

You are young and innocent

Please stop now while your ahead

Please stop now while your ahead

Please stop now while your ahead

And you say it doesn't matter but it does (it does)

You're taking every shortcut

For a taste of what you want

And you say it doesn't matter but it does

You say it doesn't matter but it does

You want it all so badly

But you're saying the wrong words

You say you got yourself a new perspective

We're running out of room for your eyeliner

Come over later and we'll cut your hair

Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah you say it doesn't matter but it does

You say it doesn't matter but it does

You say it doesn't matter but it

You say it doesn't matter but it does
