"Sidewalk" lyrics

"Sidewalk"

Kenny brought the chalk and he's shaking the spray
Bobby blows bubble gum ready to play
Sarah sticks her tongue out, she's got thumbs on her face
We never understood why daddy loves television

Lalalalalalala
Everybody's saying things that make a kid wanna cry
We just wanna be outside, yeah
It's '09 and so fine, yeah
Sit back soak up the sunshine, yeah

Now I stay inside and watch the pixels on the screen
But when I close my eyes I live in simple memories
I swear now
I can almost see the end
I just wanna play on the sidewalk with my friends

Cut the jump rope
Bobby turns red
Tripped up, he could've lost his head
But Sarah don't quite like the sight of bloodshed
Everybody knows it's alright

We don't need kisses on little cuts
Cause I count the bells of the ice cream truck
We're outside, yeah
It's '09 and so fine, yeah
Six cones, we'll get you next time, yeah

Now I stay inside and watch the pixels on the screen
But when I close my eyes I live in simple memories
I swear now
I can almost see the end
I just wanna play on the sidewalk with my friends

Now I'm just as cold as any ATM machine
And I don't get the jokes in all the teenage magazines
I know now
That I'll never see the end
And I just wanna play on the sidewalk
With my friends
