Tricks - Annabel Allum

Lets go for a ride on a blue bike

With a basket for your bags and my pocket full of lies

Im alive, I’m alive, you and I we’ll survive

Im alive, Im alive, you and I we’ll survive

And if we were like the other kids

We wouldn’t have played so many tricks

Its not as if our minds were weak

I dont wanna go home lets stay asleep

I dont wanna go home lets stay asleep

As the bottle touches your lips

I can feel myself shift — I slip- I

Menthol cigarettes to forget, do you?

Menthol cigarettes to forget, can I?

And if we were like the other kids

We wouldn’t have played so many tricks

Its not as if our minds were weak

I dont wanna go home lets stay on the street

I dont wanna go home lets stay on the street

Sticks and stones may break my bones

But I got tricks that you don’t know
