FS Ollie 02:44
Break down We all gotta get reckless like this city is don't Slow down Full speed ahead I gotta take a piss I Know now To stay away from fakes I see the pigs let's Roll out I gotta go skate gonna finally land that trick today Show me another FS Ollie Can I get a full 180 Then do it again No way! You all wanna see something gnarly How about a switch 360 In a sewer drain? Go down In a blur of smoke this is a little sketch I know now Gotta take a chance and now I see my friends they Shout loud "Watch out for cars coming through that intersection" won't Slow down Full speed ahead and hoping they'll get out of my way Get out of my way! Show me another FS Ollie Can I get a full 180 Then do it again No way! You all wanna see something gnarly How about a switch 360 In a sewer drain? Get out of my way! Show me another FS Ollie Can I get a full 180 Then do it again Get out of my way!

I guess I’m a ‘lil depressed and sometimes life just feels like a big mess I may have took the wrong pills And I’m still writing love songs I guess it’s a way to forget I’m thinkin’ about every single word you said Away from you and everything Yeah I’m kinda depressed I’m a little too far gone Yeah I’m kinda depressed I’m a little too far gone But thank you, but thank you For tryin’ I guess I’m a ‘lil depressed cause I don’t know what I’m doin’ with my life yet And I may have kissed the wrong girls And sang the wrong songs I guess I can’t do anything right and I’m thinkin’ of movin’ fuckin’ far from here We all need to wait Yeah I’m kinda depressed I’m a little too far gone Yeah I’m kinda depressed I’m a little too far gone Yeah I’m kinda depressed I’m a little too far gone Yeah I’m kinda depressed I’m a little too far gone But thank you, but thank you For tryin’ to help me out (Too far gone) For tryin’ to help me out (Too far gone) For tryin’ to help me out (Too far gone) For tryin’ to help me out (Too far gone)

Overworked over and over again Lost yourself now a stranger to your friends Your passion’s gone lock and key The Warden’s smiling no guarantees Don’t forget who you are Remember when you used to laugh Watching vin and joel while you used to lack All those stupid little worries that have you now Feelin like your head’s always upside down Now it’s time take things back Take the whip and make it crack So why are you still waiting Grab your board and go start skating Now skate the bird You can’t keep hesitating Remember that exhilarating Feeling from long ago Bring back, make it full frame The world’s gonna know, forget your shame Stickers and posters from back in time Revive you from the back of your mind All your dreams now awake from rest Shed that suit and don your vest So why are you still waiting Grab your board and go start skating Now skate the bird You can’t keep hesitating Remember that exhilarating Feeling from long ago Don’t let the suits take everything thing you love So now out the door remember why you shove Don’t stop times flying so why aren’t you So go remember to stay true So why are you still waiting? Grab your board and go start skating Now, skate the bird
