Here are the keys to my kingdom
Take her for a drive 'round the block
The brakes might squeal but just ignore that sound
And promise me you'll stay in touch with the ground
Every single thing I gave to Cindy
She took it, smiled and promised me her love
Well, don't trust Cindy, even if she frowns
And promise me you'll stay in touch with the ground
CHORUS
Move around
Stay on the ground
No, really this isn't all just Cindy's fault
And maybe she was just along for the ride
Most things in my life have to do with how I'm bound
To my promises to stay in touch with the ground
'Cause promises are only mercenary troops (that's right)
They bear no real allegiance to the soil (that's right)
When they fight they always look around (that's right)
They have never really been in touch with the ground
BRIDGE
Last time we went out for dinner, she told me
That I had disappointed her
She said of all of the things that you could have shown me
The ones you chose were peculiar
I just smiled and called for the check
And I said, honey, let's just call this thing a wreck
