Song Lyrics

Remarkable as it seems
Turns out the night was much shorter
Than you wanted to believe
But we're only in Dakota dots on maps
En route to bigger cities

And the ebbs of traffic patterns recede
And we played our only record front to back
Infinity
When it's dark like this
All that I can see is the whites of her green eyes

When she says,
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it

Thinking back to all the days when we were kids
Playing games and dropping hints
And getting wide-eyed at a glimpse
But now you're about as turned on
As a bottom feeder likes the sun

And the twist is finally gone up with the rest
Like some long extinct creature
That we've never seen in flesh
And you suppose that ever reigning champ
Eventually meets his better

And she says,
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it

And she says,
"Oh, tell me, this is all it's gonna be?"
And I say, "Oh, I don't know just how it's gonna be"
And she says, "Oh, tell me, is this all it's gonna be?"
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
There's a trigger somewhere, let's pull it
Oh
