Nickles by The Cardboard Swords Lyrics
[Intro]
Do, Re, Mi and you
Fit together like the puzzles that your best friend loves to do
And every single second that you're sippin' on your drink
Is a time that I am jealous that your lips aren't on my cheek
[Verse 1]
And I'll stand tall beneath those city lights
And we'll sing loud beneath those city lights
And we'll touch mouths beneath those city lights
And keep on filling up our cups every single city night
[Chorus]
If I had a nickel for every single girl I've met
That's just like you, then I would only have five cents
And still be just as poor as I have ever been
Well I'm just fine with you
[Verse 2]
And I'll keep lighting up your cigarettes
And supporting all our bad habits
You and I have paths to walk
And I don't see why we couldn't walk them together
And keep on camping on summer nights when there's good weather
[Pre-Chorus]
And tonight will go perfect
And that dress fits you perfectly
And that smoke on your breath matches me
[Chorus]
If I had a nickel for every single girl I've met
That's just like you, then I would only have five cents
And still be just as poor as I have ever been
Well I'm just fine with you
[Chorus]
If I had a nickel for every single girl I've met
That's just like you, then I would only have five cents
And still be just as poor as I have ever been
Well I'm just fine with you
Do, Re, Mi and you
Fit together like the puzzles that your best friend loves to do
And every single second that you're sippin' on your drink
Is a time that I am jealous that your lips aren't on my cheek
[Verse 1]
And I'll stand tall beneath those city lights
And we'll sing loud beneath those city lights
And we'll touch mouths beneath those city lights
And keep on filling up our cups every single city night
[Chorus]
If I had a nickel for every single girl I've met
That's just like you, then I would only have five cents
And still be just as poor as I have ever been
Well I'm just fine with you
[Verse 2]
And I'll keep lighting up your cigarettes
And supporting all our bad habits
You and I have paths to walk
And I don't see why we couldn't walk them together
And keep on camping on summer nights when there's good weather
[Pre-Chorus]
And tonight will go perfect
And that dress fits you perfectly
And that smoke on your breath matches me
[Chorus]
If I had a nickel for every single girl I've met
That's just like you, then I would only have five cents
And still be just as poor as I have ever been
Well I'm just fine with you
[Chorus]
If I had a nickel for every single girl I've met
That's just like you, then I would only have five cents
And still be just as poor as I have ever been
Well I'm just fine with you
