JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics : "Cliches"

She's got a ballpark figure
He's got a ballpoint pen
Travel around for weeks at a time

Writing down descriptions of the places they been
She plays guitar but nothing fancy
With no intention of becoming a star

Only thing that's bothering him these days
Is where he's gonna find a good ten cent cigar


Cliches, good ways
Say what you mean, mean what you say
She never did make her debut

He never made it to class
She's 86'd from the Chart Room
He's 29 and pushin' 30 real fast

They're funny when they get to rockin'
Goin' out for the night on the town
Takin' polaroid pictures that are never in focus

Just to look at when they finally slow down
Full moon, so soon
Wishin' every month of the year could be June


He's always tuned into Star Trek
She's always tuned into him

Hidin' his cookies when he gets the munchies
Tryin' hard just to keep the boy slim
Tonight they're gonna go star gazing

And try to figure out which one they're near
Try as they might I don't think they'll reach the height
She know you can't get there from here


Full moon, so soon
Wishin' every month of the year could be June

Cliches, good ways
Say what you mean, mean what you say
Just say what you mean, mean what you say
