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 bows
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
But only when I walk through the 99 cent store
Aah, 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 loadеd water gun
Tied me to thеse 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
But only when I walk through the 99 cent store
Aah, you sold me all those cheap lies
Could've built me a whole 99 cent store
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I still think about you sometimes
But only when I walk through the 99 cent store
Aah, you sold me all those cheap lies
Could've built me a whole 99 cent store
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I still think about you sometimes
Only when I walk through the 99 cent store
