COOL THINGS
(Kern/Ratts)

i've got two napkins
from our meal in bethesda
and two ticket stubs
from better than ezra
i've got some newly
emptied picture frames
that used to feature us
in the everglades

i've got one bad disposition
from missing too many good times
so it's my intuition
to get rid of what reminds...

i've got a boom box
that used to play your tdk's
i've got that jacket that you bought me
over winter break
i've got a shot glass
we smuggled back fro mexico
and a secret stash of movies
that i can't let go

well i could box it away
with lots of packing tape
but i can't archive my love
like all of the cool things
we used to do

do do doot doot doot doot do do do
do doot doot doot doot doot do
do do doot doot doot doot do do do
cool things that we used to do

i've got your tape of the 'surfers
doing hairway to steven
and that great big cup
from seven eleven
i've got that night stand
where you kept remote controls
and some other secret things
that no one needs to know

i've got some pictures in my smart phone
and some pictures in my mind
i've got your disc of frank sinatra
i've got to leave those things behind

i've got your lipstick on a card
from my last big birthday
and that green growing thing
you got me for earthday
and the turntable
where you'd listen to my vinyl
and the front door
where i knew that it was final
i've got an ashtray
from a hollywood hotel
and your cd stand
that never stood so well
and the socks we bought
that night in shenandoah
it's time to pack it up
everything must go-ah

gonna dump it all in
the recycling bin
but i can't archive my love...
like all of the cool things
we used to do

when all is done
it still is strange
what do i use to fill
to fill woh woh woh woh
these empty picture frames?

do do doot doot doot doot do do do
do doot doot doot doot doot do
do do doot doot doot doot do do do
cool things that i'm going to do
