By random luck, I stumbled across this band a couple of months ago. They’re…refreshing and new. I’m a fan. This song is also going to be in Zach Braff’s new film, The Last Kiss, which comes out tomorrow I believe. The film also stars Jacinda from the London Real World. Holy mother of god is she cute. I had a crush on her waay back in ‘95 and she’s still stunningly cute and totally someone I want to read the newspaper with on Sunday mornings.
Aaaaand I’m a pathetic romantic.
Enough about my lame-ness. Let’s have at the lyrics.
Athlete – El Salvador
It’s time to tear this place down
I’ve got the last gig on my mind.
Not seen my friends in ages
have I been left behind?
It’s time to figure out why
I find myself in custody
With each and every question
Words come so easily
Fly to El Salvador
I don’t know why and I don’t know what for
I’ve seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn’t work so
I’ll choose the picture for myself
It’s time to start all over
Take only one thing spare to wear
Head for the check-in lights and get up into the air
It’s time to take new measures
Someone will put us up tonight
Far from our place of rest
I’ve almost got you in sight
Fly to El Salvador
I don’t know why and I don’t know what for
I’ve seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn’t work so
I’ll choose the picture for myself
First class and big hotels
(I can’t quite put my finger on it)
Videos and global sales
(I can’t quite put my finger on it)
Free drinks that you pay yourself
(I can’t quite put my finger on it)
Fly to El Salvador
I don’t know why and I don’t know what for
I’ve seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn’t work so
I’ll choose the picture for myself
