Two margaritas and an antacid
The last supper of the pleonastic
Tell me what you see in me
And i'll tell you why it's plastic
Something borrowed, something new
Take another face from the shelf
'Cause what else can I do
But list all my faults to myself?
It's all vaseline (on the lens)
It's all vaseline (It's all pretense)
I talk about books I'll never read
She talks about the Rangers
I always give too much, too fast
To complete strangers
There's all kinds of things
I'm not at liberty to say
But this is just some dumb pop song
And I haven't slept in days
It's all vaseline (on the lens)
It's all vaseline (It's all pretense)
Pepsi Cola called me up
Said everything was for naught
If nothing matters in this life
Might as well spend what you've got
You finish your microwave dinner
I'll smoke my Doral Lights
The one good thing I can say about myself
Is that I never put up a fight
It's all vaseline (on the lens)
It's all vaseline (It's all pretense)
ย
It's all vaseline (on the lens)
It's all vaseline (It's all pretense)
They're making a movie out on the streets
Of Austin Texas today
Someone told me its a radical film
The people are attractive in a real-life way
Smear a handful on the glass
And make the edges blur
Everything will come to pass
But that don't mean it won't hurt
It's all vaseline (on the lens)
It's all vaseline (It's all pretense)
It's all vaseline on the lens (on the lens)
It's all vaseline
It's all pretense
