Don Was - Pinch Me lyrics

[Verse 1] It's the perfect time of year Somewhere far away from here I feel fine enough, I guess Considering everything's a mess There's a restaurant down the street Where hungry people like to eat I could walk, but I'll just drive It's colder than it looks outside [Chorus] It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone when ya Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn when ya Try to see the world beyond your front door Take your time because the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile when ya Realize that with a guy my size it might take a while just to Try to figure out what all this is for [Verse 2] It's the perfect time of day To throw all your cares away Put the sprinkler on the lawn And run through with my gym shorts on Take a drink right from the hose And change into some drier clothes Climb the stairs up to my room Sleep away the afternoon [Chorus] [Middle Eight] Pinch me Pinch me Because I'm still Asleep Please God Tell me That I'm still asleep [Verse 3] On an evening such as this It's hard to tell if I exist If I packed a car and leave this town Who'll notice that I'm not around? I could hide out under there I just made you say 'underwear' I could leave but I'll just stay All my stuff's here anyway [Chorus]
