lyrics

I like your sunglasses
She’s a renegade on rollerblades
I’ll write a hit for the masses
And I hope it doesn’t drive you away

But don’t you ever take the easy way out
He says, “Don’t shoot the messenger, the messenger’s the only way”
And if you struggle with doubt
He says, “Don’t shoot the messenger, the messenger’s the only way to reach ya”

She says, “It’s so tragic… that conversation’s become so passé”
And if it hurts, and it really does hurt
I’ll pack my bags and hop on a train
