Jordana & TV Girl Lyrics

"Jump The Turnstile"

Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Doo-wah-diddy and bust in with the pre-roll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Doo-wah-diddy and bust in with the pre-roll

If the southbound train keeps you away from me
And the stations are all the spaces in between
Found a ticket without a dollar in my jeans
You looked up to kiss me, but you were always taller in my dreams

Who really understands how the night connects to day?
When you can't even understand how it all connects today
All the working stiffs who had to work can say
I wonder why that little girl was crying on the train

Found a friend
Found a home
Found a foe
All alone, so far away from home

Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Doo-wah-diddy and bust in with the pre-roll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Doo-wah-diddy and bust in with the pre-roll

Everybody pretending that they don't see, that they don't know
That you're thinking of yesterday, but you're wearing tomorrow's clothes
It isn't fair when you pay the fare and he sends you back
You're left laying flat like a penny on the tracks

So hop the turnstile, baby, take the Q until you're sick
Stand on the platform, see the light through the wind
One second you're moving along and the next, you feel like shit
Never a free ride, never a yang without the yin

Found a friend
Found a home
Found a foe
All alone, so far away from me

Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Doo-wah-diddy and bust in with the pre-roll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Jump the turnstiles, never pay the toll
Doo-wah-diddy and bust in with the pre-roll
