Stripmall Beauty Queen Lyrics by The Dubnicks

How To Be Cool

2001

[Verse 1]
It's 2am
Tara falls asleep like clockwork by the Christ-like glow of the Super Nintendo Machine
The TV sings her a Super Mario lullaby
She tosses and turns on a clean white couch
With her clean white parents in her clean white house
Behind a clean white picket fence where they leave the rest of the world outside
[Chorus]
Strip mall beauty queen
Oh, won't you make a scene with me tonight
We'll hang at Circle K and waste away the neat suburban skies
On and on, we all fall down
On and on, we all fall down
[Verse 2]
Tara doesn't look forward to much anymore
She goes to school wondering why no one else seems as bored as she is
She figures it's an inside thing
The way they stroll through life like a warm summer's day
Makes her wonder what planet she's from and how far away it is
At any rate, she's already packed her things
[Chorus]
Strip mall beauty queen
Oh, won't you make a scene with me tonight
We'll hang at Circle K and waste away the neat suburban skies
On and on, we all fall down
On and on, we all fall down
[Verse 3]
Tara goes back home
Sits back down on a clean white couch
In a clean white house where she leaves the rest of the world outside
And if she drifts away while the TV themes
She wonders what it's like to sleep with dreams
You see, Tara doesn't remember the last time she woke up and felt alive
[Chorus]
Stripmall beauty queen
Oh, won't you make a scene with me tonight
We'll hang at Circle K and waste away the neat suburban skies
On and on, we all fall down
On and on, we all fall down
Stripmall beauty queen
Oh, won't you make a scene with me tonight
We'll hang at Circle K and waste away the neat suburban skies
On and on, we all fall down
On and on, we all fall down
