Five in the Way

from Every Five Years by Jonathan Pape

/

lyrics

She pulls up to a stop sign and rolls her eyes
Ignores the wolf-man who thinks she's a prize
Caught up in the question of what will work, tonight
Because like any catalyst she needs his spark to light

But her brother's gone on his mission
He'll be back next spring
Little sister is too young to know her
And she's without a place to sing

She keeps waiting for something to happen
Forgettin' 'bout the rules she's suppose to follow
She's got a boy just north of here
But 35 isn't lit too clear for her
For someone like her

When she gets that way she tends to look for a ride
She brought a date to the jungle looks like she'll be here while

But it never was her city
So now she's into leaving

She keeps waiting for something to happen
Forgettin' 'bout the rules she's suppose to follow
She's got a boy just north of here
But 35 isn't lit too clear for her
For someone like her

that man's worth ignoring
oh, some might say
even ten years later
with five in the way

She keeps waiting for something to happen
Forgettin' 'bout the rules she's suppose to follow
She's got a boy just north of here
But 35 isn't lit too clear for her
For someone like her

I used to be in a band called The Jupiter Project, and then I was in License, then I went toe-to-toe with Giant Battle Wombat and most recently I tried to keep up with the Paper Snakes. ... more
