When I'm lost at sea Your eyes are all I see Your eyes are all I see The haze and the heat They get the best of me They get the best of me She sells cellphones down by the subway I make eyes at her while I'm waiting to pay And I wanna say CHORUS: At Summerhill Station we're gonna take a ride Summerhill Station the sun is gonna shine In the summertime oh won't you be mine The days turn to weeks They get away from me They get away from me She paints toenails and packs a suitcase I play ukulele singing down by the bay It's a beautiful day CHORUS I'm lost at sea You get the best of me You get the best of me CHORUS

Ever since we were kids you always had the upper hand You got away with murder wink I'd put you on the defensive, make you take the stand But simon says that's wishful thinking I saw that stunt that you pulled, I saw you crossing the line I saw you pulling the wool over everyone's eyes I saw you bending the rules when you captured the flag I saw you moving around in a game of freeze tag Yeah I spy with my little eye And I'm calling foul tonight Chorus Olly oxen free, olly olly oxen free Olly oxen free, oxen free You're too big to fall, and it's too close to call Olly oxen free, olly olly oxen free Olly oxen free, oxen free I hide the best out of all my peers, I'm undefeated Marco polo marco polo Catch a tiger by the toe, bro, you can't prove that I cheated Yolo, oh no, yolo, oh no I saw that stunt that you pulled, I saw you crossing the line I saw you pulling the wool over everyone's eyes I saw you bending the rules when you captured the flag I saw you moving around in a game of freeze tag Yeah I spy with my little eye And in a game of paper, scissors, rock We will rock it like we don't know Like we don't know how to stop We don't know how to stop We don't know Chorus

Family Tree 04:49
I'm on my way Today you'll say, I'm sorry I think we've done Something no one, has thought of You got away with it and I'll never tell You've got a way with me, I'm under your spell We're in a club Here in the public library We're not too loud We're not allowed to ever be You got away with it and I'll never tell You've got a way with me, I'm under your spell Maybe, I'll find my family Climb the family tree I say, love the ones you hate The ones you love can wait The sun, won't forget to shine Triggers in my mind You got away with it and I'll never tell You've got a way with me, I'm under your spell

Birds 03:23
You fly like, it’s effortless to touch the sky You soar like it’s high time we all admired you body’s a hollow tube Those feathers are water proof You dive like a knife cuts through the reasons why You glide like the laws of God might not apply It rains but you’re alive You survive; you fly You sing like you’re pleased with everything in sight In the trees where you alight for seasons at a time You survive; you fly You fly like a bird away Fly like a bird away Fly like a bird away You fly like a bird away Fly like a bird away Fly like a bird away

Tokyo Drift 03:02
Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, sliding down the road, I I didn't see the boy there. He hit my passenger side, When I took a turn going to wide, and they said to me, What a stupid thing to do, how dare you practice that in the street My Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid. Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo The kid rolled away, Got up brushed himself off, he was okay. I said the kid was okay, so I drove away, I just hope he did not get my license plate My Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid. Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo Practicing my Tokyo Drift, I hit a kid, I hit a kid, yo

Julie 02:56
Wake up at twelve, regret the night before Have a shower, get cleaned up, start your day Meet a friend for lunch, you always meet a friend for lunch You have lunch, and of course you pay Walk the streets, a couple of hours Check in, drop off the key It's not easy crashing on a couch for seven days In a city you don't know It's a stranger of a friend of a friend Who is still a stranger You're playing guest to his tour guide the whole day You make eye contact for a bit too long You never get to the point No rhythm in this conversation You walk in silences Nighttime comes, you coil your cash Together you hit a bar A dark lit room with a bunch of couches Stained from the nights before You meet a group of people; you're introduced to them simultaneously You do your best to memorize all the names After the final hello, you focus on just one name This is the name you'll use throughout the rest of the night Everyone else you'll by with calling them pronouns you learned on an HBO crime drama When you think the drunken strangers are onto your game You say the one name you know loudly So loud it's clear you're one of them: Julie You spend the rest of the night creating similarities Where few are found You drink more and more with the little cash you have You slip into pitchers of beer when no one is looking The night goes on, people leave There's more seats at the table You pair up into smaller bunches of conversations, three or four You create more intimate connections with people whose names you still don't know A girl at the table who was interested in a guy who has already left seems to be more interested in you now than she ever was before You pull her aside; the conversation becomes more intimate You talk about what you wish you could have been As the night progresses, it seems you are a pair You slip off to meet her in the bathroom But she's too nervous, why press it You return to the table, everyone is leaving You say you will leave as well You look to her, but she's not making eye contact You descend down the stairs as you all leave in a group As the twelve of you depart in different directions, she lingers You wave off your friend, and linger as well Together you walk home to her house, and share a night in her bed The next morning you wake up, have a shower, walk the streets And then drop off a key to your new found femal
