Baby boy, you're on the counter
and she's waiting for you.
And she's waiting to-- ooh ooh.
Baby boy, there's not much after.
She's still waiting for you.
Why waste time trying to
catch a breaking wave?
Wide open space behind you.
I'm too old trying to keep up
on these silly games.
I'm floating in the ocean.
Baby boy, you've changed your name now,
and she's lookin' at you.
And she's looking to-- ooh ooh.
Baby boy, she's in your brain now.
And you're singing her tune.
Why waste time trying to
catch a breaking wave?
Wide open space behind you.
I'm too old trying to keep up
on these silly games.
I'm floating in the ocean.
You can hear the sirens calling out your name.
But, boy just turn away.
Just turn away.
Baby boy, you're on the shore now.
And she's leaving you.
And she's leaving to-- ooh ooh.
Baby boy, the tides have changed now.
And you're stuck in the mud.
Why waste time trying to
catch a breaking wave?
Wide open space behind you.
I'm too old trying to keep up
on these silly games.
I'm floating in the ocean.
