A Day Late in My Dollar Shorts - Backyard Babies

Chances high, bets are low

You convincing me that this is a no-go

But you don’t know what I know

Appetite, trust your thirst

Babblin' on 'bout not make the 21st

Hey, this bubble won’t burst

If it won’t work, it will work anyway

I didn’t come here just to fade away

Just embrace the color gray

A day late in my dollar shorts

Go with the flow and the highest stakes

It will take whatever it might take

Move on up without no breaks

A day late in my dollar shorts

Running cold, the nordic noir

You stain me with your soggy golden star

You won’t make it that far

Gate is closed, we’re bouncing back

While you got hit by a lightning smack attack

Everything’s gonna crack

If it won’t work, it will work anyway

I didn’t come here just to fade away

Just embrace the color gray

A day late in my dollar shorts

Go with the flow and the highest stakes

It will take whatever it might take

Move on up without no breaks

A day late in my dollar shorts

Silver lining, luck combining

Then the light’s come shining from a spark

Like a diamond in the dark

If it won’t work, it will work anyway

I didn’t come here just to fade away

Just embrace the color gray

A day late in my dollar shorts

Go with the flow and the highest stakes

It will take whatever it might take

Move on up without no breaks

A day late in my dollar shorts
