"VCR Home Video" lyrics

Open up a can of worms
I was your child but somehow the roles reversed
Left on less than perfect terms
But you were my blueprint, my first word I learned

And every now and then I catch a glimpse of what we had
When we laugh, ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha

We're a car crash in slow motion
So before we hit the ocean
Can we take a little time to reminisce?
In a VCR home video
There's a ghost of us from long ago, oh-ah-ah
Now it is what it is
It is what it is

Oooh
Oooh

I've rolled the tape backwards
While you were so sad I'm right there chasing birds
And when I learned to curse
And when I slammed my door I never meant to hurt you

And every now and then I catch a glimpse of what we had
When we laugh, ha-ha, ha-ha, ha-ha

We're a car crash in slow motion
So before we hit the ocean
Can we take a little time to reminisce?
In a VCR home video
There's a ghost of us from long ago, oh-ah-ah
Now it is what it is
It is what it is

Oooh
It is what it is
Oooh
Oh, it is what it is
Oooh
Oooh

Open up a can of worms
I was your child but somehow the roles reversed
