lyrics

I wonder now will this get the right reception
told like a funny story instead of confession?
tough crowd (should have left it unmentioned)
“not everything dies down with time”: the valuable lesson

strict one piece swimsuit rules out midriffs in late summer
tattletales can’t help themselves from ratting on each other
top down magazine instruction breeds rifts interstellar
helicopter parents won’t stop spinning their propellers
helicopter parents won’t stop spinning their propellers

find where you are scanning the latest radar
hard to resist that slippery business
when it’s keeping them safe and close
now who’s making the least out of that ghost?

sneaking into skeletons of houses half built cross sections
sawdust on light beams and keys left in the ignition
when you reach the acceptance that you seek until you’ve found
helicopter parents don’t get around
helicopter parents don’t get around
helicopter parents don’t get around
helicopter parents don’t get around
