lyrics

Pretend

Leave the keys here when you go make sure all your doors are locked
The news don’t come on television, six o’clock screen sits there dark.
We can watch ourselves recorded in fifty years, faces we forgot.
We cannot remember what we felt because we didn’t feel then.
Ahoo, so lets pretend.

Your pick-up line’s “hello”
And it works everywhere you go.
You say, “goodbye” oh no
And so it goes on as before.
Ahoo, so lets pretend.

Called the telephone bad reception now our voice is lost.
Made these plans told all our friends about the email didn’t go out.
No one’s coming no one cares, but uh, you and I should talk.
Ahoo, and let’s pretend.

Your pick-up line’s “hello”
And it works everywhere you go.
Wasting my time, I know.
But it’s my own time to blow.
You say, “goodbye” oh no
And so it goes on as before.
I wouldn’t mind, for sure,
If there was never another re-run or they just cancelled the show.

All day long you go to work without tools sharpened, dull blades.
Save your breathe for nights to talk about all those good old days.
You can unplug me and take my stitches out, that won’t be the end.
Ahoo, and we pretend.
Ahoo, and we pretend
