Lyrics

0:06There's a party and we're all going
0:09And we're all growing up
0:12Somebody's driving and he will be drinking
0:16And no one's going back
0:19'Cause we've tried hungry and we've tried full and
0:23Nothing seems enough
0:26So tonight tonight
0:28The boys are gonna go for
0:30More more more
0:33And I want a love that falls as fast
0:36As a body from the balcony and
0:40I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground
0:47I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat
0:50Though I don't know what I'm waiting for
0:54I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
1:01Smell that it's wet grass and smoke in my hair
1:04I think I've had enough
1:08But he wants a finale and I came prepared
1:11And we're not going back
1:15And I've tried sharing and I've tried caring
1:18And I've tried putting out
1:22But the boys boys boys keep coming on for
1:26More more more
1:29And change change change is gonna come
1:32But when when when
1:36And I want a love that falls as fast
1:39As a body from the balcony
1:43I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground
1:49I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat
1:53Though I don't know what I'm waiting for
1:56I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
2:28And I want a love that falls as fast
2:31As a body from the balcony
2:35I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground
2:42I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat
2:45Though I don't know what I'm waiting for
2:48I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
2:56I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
3:03Gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
There's a party and we're all going
And we're all growing up
Somebody's driving and he will be drinking
And no one's going back
'Cause we've tried hungry and we've tried full and
Nothing seems enough
So tonight tonight
The boys are gonna go for
More more more
And I want a love that falls as fast
As a body from the balcony and
I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground
I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat
Though I don't know what I'm waiting for
I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
Smell that it's wet grass and smoke in my hair
I think I've had enough
But he wants a finale and I came prepared
And we're not going back
And I've tried sharing and I've tried caring
And I've tried putting out
But the boys boys boys keep coming on for
More more more
And change change change is gonna come
But when when when
And I want a love that falls as fast
As a body from the balcony
I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground
I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat
Though I don't know what I'm waiting for
I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
And I want a love that falls as fast
As a body from the balcony
I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground
I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat
Though I don't know what I'm waiting for
I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
I am not gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
Gonna be what my daddy wants me to be
