ANT – Hand-Me-Downs lyrics

Album: The Birds Sing Goodnight To You And Me

Doomed to spend his teens in ill fitting jeans
Hoping the local girls won’t see
But everything’s alright come the twilight, the moonlight
At midnight in the woods it’s too dark to see
Oh he will always wear hand-me-downs
Lipstick on his brother’s shirt
Running around this tiny town
In his brother’s hand-me-downs
Yeah he will always wear hand-me-downs
Throw backs from who knows when
Head to toe in that puzzled frown
In his brother’s hand-me-downs

Trying not to freeze in his short shirtsleeves
Hoping the local girls won’t tease
But everything’s alright come the twilight, the moonlight
At midnight in the woods it’s too black to see
Oh he will always wear hand-me-downs
Lipstick on his brother’s shirt
Running around this tiny town
In his brother’s hand-me-downs
Yeah he will always wear hand-me-downs
Throw backs from who knows when
Head to toe in that puzzled frown
In his brother’s hand-me-downs

Oh he longs to woo in something new in something new
He longs to be finally free like the birds in the trees

But he will always wear hand-me-downs
Lipstick on his brother’s shirt
Running around this tiny town
In his brother’s hand-me-downs
Yeah he will always wear hand-me-downs
Throw backs from who knows when
Head to toe in that lovely frown
In his brother’s hand-me-downs
Yeah he will always wear hand-me-downs
Lipstick on his brother’s shirt
Running around this tiny town
In his brother’s hand-me-downs
Yeah he will always wear hand-me-downs
Throw backs from who knows when
Head to toe in that lovely frown
In his brother’s hand-me-downs
