white stripes - hand springs lyrics

Loading...

i took my girl to go bowling
downtown at the red door
after an argument i started
’cause i thought she didn’t like me anymore
i can’t help it sometimes i feel pitiful
and of course she’s so young and beautiful

i bought us two gl-sses of c-ke
thet’s her favorite
and i wanted to make up for earlier
but i dropped her gl-ss and it broke
so i just gave my gl-ss to her

she laughed and so did i in our lane
and then she went to the vending machine
to buy a candy cane
but right next to that was a boy i knew
with a spring in his hand
playing a country pinball machine
called “stand by your man”
i saw him talk to her
but i stayed in my lane
and played my game steady
and was thinking of a day
when i’d be too old to throw a ball this heavy

but i guess i’m young now
so it’s easier to knock ’em all down
then i looked and saw her say to him
“you’re really hittin’ that ball around”
and so he’s lookin’ at her the way i did
when i first met her
i could see in his face
white flowers
and cups of coffee
and love letters

i was sorry to interrupt their game
but i went and did it anyway
i dropped my red bowling ball
through the gl-ss of his machine
i said “are you quick enough to hit
this ball, mr. clean?”
i was scared to lose her
so i couldn’t help bein’ mean

and that ended both of our games
i said i was sorry
but my girl left with him just the same
i thought how much i hate
when love makes me act this way
i was bent over a broken pinball machine
in a blowling alley and i threw it all away

well it’s it all just a big game?
