99¢ Store by Melanie Martinez
Released : 2018
I had pinwheels in my eyes for you
Blinded by the pinks and blues
Oh, you were my wind-up Romeo
We had matching bubblegum tattoos
Serenade me with your kazoo
You tricked me with your ribbons and your bows
It’s so shiny in a shopping cart
Pretty in a parking lot
But when you go, that’s when it falls apart
I still think about you sometimes
Only when I walk through the 99 cent store
Oh, you sold me all those cheap lies
Could’ve built me a whole 99 cent store
One-and-done me with your plastic fruit
Rob me of my sweet tooth
Help me out with the loaded water ***
Tied me into these toy train tracks
You left me there and you never came back
Tacky souvenirs when it’s said and done
It’s so shiny in a shopping cart
Pretty in a parking lot
But when you go, that’s when it falls apart
I still think about you sometimes
Only when I walk through the 99 cent store
Oh, you sold me all those cheap lies
Could’ve built me a whole 99 cent store
I still think about you sometimes
Only when I walk through the 99 cent store
Oh, you sold me all those cheap lies
Could’ve built me a whole 99 cent store
I still think about you sometimes
Only when I walk through the 99 cent store
