Lyrics

0:21Mary packed her bags and left home on a Christmas Eve
0:35For sea soaked skies and dashing lads with cars
0:54An actress orphaned by the social constructs of her art school
1:10A victim of their esoteric rule
1:20So pretentious that she almost thought it cool
1:35But all you'd hear is
1:59Purpose was a vague ideal that she would always talk on
2:15Till she fell in love with the salesman from TV
2:26Yeah she fell in love with a salesman from TV
2:41While all of hollywood sang
2:43La la la la la
2:47La la la la la la la
2:54La la la la la
2:58La la la la la la la
3:32Pearly pretty prize and a ribbon box of sighs
3:37In a collared shirt
3:40She thought it wouldn't hurt
3:43Certain love of mine with the palest blue eyes
3:48In a collared shirt
3:51I thought it couldn't hurt
3:54Wood flavored kiss taste the concrete of this
3:58It really f**ked with me it really f**ked with me
4:05California eyes are a death witch from design
4:09You really f**ked with me
4:16La la la la la
4:20La la la la la la la
4:27La la la la la
4:31La la la la la la la
4:37La la la la la
4:42La la la la la la la
4:48La la la la la
4:53La la la la la la la
