lyrics
Like Yesterday
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)
My home won't long stay in your driveway
my home's a-honking for to carry me away
so I turn your lips astray
I turn your lips astray
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
Since all my candles fit on one cake
took from my folks all the advantage I could take
repaid them with a wave
repaid them with a wave
and I made like yesterday
like yesterday
See, I'm borrowed from much greater men, sir
but the backslash youth don't give two damns though, for my lender
so I bow upon their stage
said, I bow upon your stage
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
This could be for good
This could be for good
What if this is good?
Is this for good?
good
Our Shell refinery by midnight
rivaled in beauty only by the stars' own light
so I drop my eyes away
said, we drop our eyes away
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
I serve one purpose on this dying earth
to keep her turning by my wheels upon her dirt
for your sake, I cannot stay
for our sake, I cannot stay
must make like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
My home won't long stay in your driveway
my home's still honking for to carry me away
so I turn your lips astray
said, I turn your lips astray
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
three, four
like yesterday
I said like yesterday
like yesterday
and I make like yesterday
day after yesterday, say
day after yesterday
just like yesterday
like yesterday
I give you all a wave
and I make like yesterday
like yesterday
