Breaking Away Lyrics by The Massacoustics

Suburban Songs

2005

[Chorus]
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
[Verse 1]
I'll buy an overpriced t-shirt from the girl who flirts
In the miniskirt selling trinkets at the sidewalk store
I ain’t gonna waste my chance to drink and dance
Get way outta hand and act totally immature
Ain't that what we're all here for?
It’s good for a change to be somewhere strange
Sometimes you wanna go where nobody knows your name
[Verse 2]
Just an overweight American at the Holiday Inn
Drinkin' tequila in the deep end, soaking up paradise
Killing my brain cells, polishin' my liver
Getting some melanoma but the hangover sure feels nice
Late last night
No inhibitions, there ain't no shame
Sometimes you wanna go where nobody knows your name
[Chorus]
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
[Chorus]
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
[Chorus]
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
[Outro]
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, put my feet in the sand
Breaking away from the dull and bland
Head down to the water, down to the water
