i had pinwheels in my eyes for you
blinded by the pinks and blues
oh, you were my wind-up Romeo
we had matching bubblegum tattoos
serenade me with your kazoo
you tricked me with your ribbons and your bow
it's so shiny in a shopping cart
pretty in a parking lot
but when you go home
that's when it falls apart
i still think about you sometimes
only when i walk through the 99 cent store
you sold me all those cheap lies
could've built me a whole 99 cent store
wine and dine me with your plastic food
robbed me of my sweet tooth
held me up with a loaded water gun
tied me to these toy train tracks
you left me there and you never came back
tacky souvenirs when it's said and done
it's so shiny in a shopping cart
pretty in a parking lot
but when you go home
that's when it falls apart
i still think about you sometimes
only when i walk through the 99 cent store
you sold me all those cheap lies
could've built me a whole 99 cent store
i still think about you sometimes
only when i walk through the 99 cent store
you sold me all those cheap lies
could've built me a whole 99 cent store
ooh, ooh
i still think about you sometimes
only when i walk through the 99 cent store
