10 Lbs.

I thought The Rodeo Song was my draw

The more the horse bucked, the deeper you'd fall

But you worked there for roots and for old ties

You were there for your friend, not the one on the rise

I wish we were adult contemporaries when we went through school

'cause I'd have hung around and I'dve walked you home from school

Your friend's the actress, don't lose 10 lbs. too

'cause you are as pretty, as pretty times two

But she doesn't come alone - she comes with a friend

and that means you, you'll come around

So bells ring and whistles blow

At least I'm alive

You take the highway in and you take it home

and I walk through patterned blocks, I cut it alone

You should never laugh at other people's jokes

'cause I fill up with pride, live my life in the hopes

I live my life in the hopes
