Soda Shop Songtext
von Jay Brannan

The sidewalk is rushing at my head again
I′m lying on the street in the rain and wind
From doing forward rolls down Avenue A
With my guitar on my back, don't let it end this way

Somehow I dialed my cell
I didn′t know I could get service in hell
How quickly can you get here?
Don't know where I am, dear
Finally, the world actually seems to be revolving around me

Shoobie doobie doo-wap
I overdid it at the soda shop
Thanks for being my girl
At the "I-don't-know -when-to-stop-sock-hop"


You held my head over the edge of the bed
I remember it now, but at the time I thought I was dead
You put a pan there and held back my hair
How can I repay you for saving me and my hardwood floor?

Shoobie doobie doo-wap
I overdid it at the soda shop
Thanks for being my girl
At the "I-don′t-know -when-to-stop-sock-hop"

And when the world stops spinning round
I picked the pen up off the ground
I read my upheaves much like tea leaves
They said it′s over, so get sober or you'll die again

Shoobie doobie doo-wap
I overdid it at the soda shop
Thanks for being my girl
At the "I-don′t-know -when-to-stop-sock-hop"
