Ray's dad teaches
math - Zero, I'm a dunce I'm a decimal in his class
Last night's kisses won't erase
Zero, I just can't put the numbers in their place

On the edge of here A little atmosphere
Last verse:
Blue lights out on airport road
Motown, in a field in a farmer's grove
Big planes comin' overhead
Lowdown,
You can see the bolts
See the tire treads
Ray's dad's Cadillac
Weekends we get
Ray's dad's Cadillac
Oh, little darlin'
Rock 'n roll in the dashboard
Romance in the back seat of
