The Rocket Summer
"Tv Family"


Just a calendar day (ba ba ba ba)
it's funny how things can stay the same
or drastically change
some things seem so close on some days but still so far away
don't know the right things to do (ba ba ba ba)
in fact i don't have a clue sometime i feel like a tool
and i want to be truthfully true to you
and do all the things that you do
but when i hate everything about the mean things that i say
it feels like i mess up so much and i can only say
"i hate everything about my ways"
but you tell me i'm OK
and one day one day i know you'll say

"B i'm so glad you made it"
"oh well Jesus thank you so much for saying that"
because the truth you know is that i have just been hating so many things i do
but now i realize forever that you're my friend
no matter what you will never leave me to fend
i don't know much but i know we will be
as happy as a 1950's TV family
except times infinity

two calendar days (ba ba ba ba)
and still my life is the same
and other people's have changed
i wonder what if i'm too late
all the time that i said i would just wait?
and yeah does anyone care
about us here or anywhere?
well i just want to try and dare
to be there, to care 'cause i know- i know that's rare
but when i hate everything about the mean things that i say
it feels like i mess up so much and i can only say
"i hate everything about my ways"
but you tell me i'm OK
and one day one day i know you'll say

"B i'm so glad you made it"
"oh well Jesus thank you so much for saying that"
because the truth you know is that i have just been hating so many things i do
but now i realize forever that you're my friend
no matter what you will never leave me to fend
i don't know much but i know we will be
as happy as a 1950's TV family
except times infinity

a family that i will be in
a family - it's just not pretend
a family that i will be in, a family

i don't know much but i know we will be
happy as a 1950's TV family..
except times infinity
just a calendar day
