[Ben Folds - You to Thank lyrics]
By the time the buzz was wearing off
We were standing out on the sidewalk
With our tattoos that looked like rings
In the hot Nevada sun
Gifts piled high
And our moms and dads shook hands
And our party of polaroid friends
Rented a pool and hired a band
Maybe they knew more than we knew
'Cause they danced and drank
While we jumped off the deep end
Oh, I've got you to thank for this
Christmas came around
Yeah, and everything was going to crap
For moms and dads, not a clue to be had
Yeah, we put on a pretty good act
And they seemed to all need to believe it
So we danced and smiled
And paddled hard beneath it
Oh, I've got you to thank for this
You can't say you've never had a doubt
And smoked it down but really wanted out
Oh, God damn!
By the time the buzz was wearing off
We were standing out on the sidewalk
With our tattoos that looked like rings
In the hot Nevada sun and they won't fade
I've got you to thank
We were standing out on the sidewalk
With our tattoos that looked like rings
In the hot Nevada sun
Gifts piled high
And our moms and dads shook hands
And our party of polaroid friends
Rented a pool and hired a band
Maybe they knew more than we knew
'Cause they danced and drank
While we jumped off the deep end
Oh, I've got you to thank for this
Christmas came around
Yeah, and everything was going to crap
For moms and dads, not a clue to be had
Yeah, we put on a pretty good act
And they seemed to all need to believe it
So we danced and smiled
And paddled hard beneath it
Oh, I've got you to thank for this
You can't say you've never had a doubt
And smoked it down but really wanted out
Oh, God damn!
By the time the buzz was wearing off
We were standing out on the sidewalk
With our tattoos that looked like rings
In the hot Nevada sun and they won't fade
I've got you to thank
