Bottle Rockets Lyrics by The Cunninghams

Zeroed Out

0

[Verse 1]
1975, we were young and so alive
Traded Hot Wheels for kissing
Innocence was tripping
Bottled like a cheap red wine
[Pre-Chorus]
We were all out of control
Always believed in the rock and roll
And I wish that I could touch you just like a lover
But you wouldn't learn a thing
[Chorus]
Everyone's a bottle rocket, yeah
Shoot, shoot, shoot in the sky
[Verse 2]
1976, we were young and out for kicks
We were million dollar babies
Knievel was a crazy
Bubblicious on your lips
[Pre-Chorus]
We were all out of control
Always believed in the rock and roll
And I wish that I could touch you just like a lover
But you wouldn't learn a thing
[Chorus]
Everyone's a bottle rocket, yeah
Shoot, shoot, shoot in the sky
[Bridge]
Your memories will keep you young inside
And when you die, somebody comes alive
Lights up the sky
Lights up the sky (lights up the sky)
Fourth of July, Fourth of July
Baby, don't you know you're a star tonight?
Fourth of July, Fourth of July
Baby, don't you know you're a star tonight?
Fourth of July, Fourth of July
Baby, don't you know you're a star tonight?
Fourth of July, Fourth of July
Baby, don't you know
[Chorus]
Everyone's a bottle rocket, yeah
Shoot, shoot, shoot in the sky
Everyone's a bottle rocket, yeah
Shoot, shoot, shoot in the sky
