"Tunnel Vision" lyrics

"Tunnel Vision"

We won a goldfish at the county fair
That pickled, deep fried smell in our hair
But when I leaned close for affection came a draft colder than steel
You nearly dropped our fish friend off the ferris wheel

We're a lot alike, you know, we're both out of our minds
You know the games are rigged, but I'll win you a prize
Although they curve the baskets and they leave the crosshairs blind
You throw a thousand rings and surely one's just the right size

But if the house is haunted and the ride is dark
You know even Bruce knew the tunnel of love
Is a one way ticket to a life you're stuck with
Tunnel vision ain't nothing to fuck with

Then came the night after we'd fight, you'd be the leader
We'd climb the bleachers even though I'm wearing sneakers
But then I'd look through your horizon, all the lights that catch your eyes and
I thought I knew you

But we're a lot alike, you know, we're both out of our minds
You know the games are rigged, but I'll win you a prize
Although they curve the baskets and they leave the crosshairs blind
You throw a thousand rings and surely one's just the right size (1, 2, 3, 4...)

But if the house is haunted and the ride is dark
You know even Bruce knew the tunnel of love
Is a one way ticket to a life you're stuck with
Tunnel vision ain't nothing to fuck with

Odds you lose are a hundred to one every time
Bad news is delivered and is waiting to sign
Away your ticket to a life you're stuck with
Tunnel vision ain't nothing to fuck with
