Lyrics

Lawn Smokes


They were pulling diamonds from the ground
We grew up just a few houses down
Couple miles to the corner store
Feels so wrong that it’s not there no more

Weather’s telling us the way to dress
Never cared, you know we ain’t dead yet
Head to church on Sunday for the snacks
There ain’t no way that I’ll be going back

Family trees, yeah you see them sprouting
Ice cream truck, on your birthday coming 
Mom and Dad they got a good thing going
Neighbours smiling, wonder what they’re growing

Set the tent up ten feet from the door
Beats the hell out of your bedroom floor
Morning traffic is the way you wake
Tractors digging all their is to take 

Smoke the cigarette butts from the lawn
Wonder if there’s any cartoons on
Always felt like you had earned your weekends
It’s fucking summer, diving in the deep end

Got some questions that need some answers
Is this is it or will there be more chances
Double digits, then who knows what happens
Nudie mags hidden beneath your mattress

Family trees, yeah you see them sprouting
Ice cream truck, on your birthday coming
Mom and Dad they got a good thing going
Neighbours smiling, wonder what they’re growing

You wonder if they’re tokin’
You wonder if they’re rollin’
Maybe we’re all just broken 

They were pulling diamonds from the ground 
We grew up just a few houses down
Couple miles to the corner store
Feels so wrong that it’s not there no more
