You're the home state I'm a native
Midnight blue in the pavement
Over my head ya hanging on
Like shoes on a wire
Frayed at the laces, time lies heavy
On a bar set high

As a glacier melts within
The same ocean he was raised up in

But I was 9 to 5 and no part time
And livin' up 10 stories high
And I saw no, no replica
Oh I saw ya with, no replica
And I still don't.

I'm the home state ya immigrated
Blue jean blue faded
How'd ya get in my system again?

Like the curse of the Cubs
Loyal blood is hard won
On a fence you can't climb

Heard a glacier crack within
The same ocean he was raised up in

But I was 9 to 5 and no part time
And livin' up 10 stories high
And I saw no, no replica
Oh I saw ya with, no replica

And the apple fell so close to a tree with fruit too sweet
Yeah that's what ya told me
When I was 9 to 5 and no part time
Saw a Madame Tussauds in the light
Said, that ain't no, no replica
No it ain't no, no replica

But I was 9 to 5 and no part time
And livin' up 10 stories high
And I saw no, no replica
Oh I saw ya with, no replica
And still don't
No I still don't
Shoulda told ya last night Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
