Mike Downey – Less Car lyrics

I shot the shit for a bit with a girl and she wasn’t you
I watched her mouth as she talked imagining braces on her teeth
The notebook she kept was Sharpied up
Not like I wanted to read
And then I caught the eye of a boy cycling up the street
He’s one less car to me
He’s perfectly in line
Knows what he needs and what he doesn’t know in a city that shoots to kill
I loose interest pretty quick with the girls when they’re not you
So I talk to the boys and they have ask me, “Do you like me too?”
Because I never had a sister to fight over the phone or put on my makeup
But boys learn pretty quick
They shoot the shit and then they take to the streets
Well the girls like to dress you up but it’s the boys that want to take it off
And it’s your friends that’ll rat you out
And then you couldn’t thank them enough
