Home base is around the corner
She's runnin' down much faster

That it's not what it seems
And we are laughing
And we are laughing
And that's all that's in store for her
She don't know what it means
Sliding downwards, you're the batter
And getting it cut

And that's all that's in store for her

Everybody knows that's she's goin' nowhere
She comes running down

When all they really care about is cutting their hair
She comes running down like water

She just knows
Letting it grow
Everybody knows that she's goin' nowhere

She just knows
All she can hear is laughter
Everybody always tells her, how much they care
When all they really care about is growing their hair
All she can hear is laughter
She's just like that farmer's daughter
Everybody laughs at the joke
And we are laughing
That it's not what it seems
That it's not what it seems
She's runnin' down much faster
Home base is around the corner
She just knows
Everybody always tells her, how much they care
She don't know what it means
She don't know what it means
That's what they say, 500 up on the ladder
