Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's the perfect time of year Somewhere far away from here I feel fine enough, I guess Considering everything's a mess There's a restaurant down the street Where hungry people like to eat I could walk, but I'll just drive It's colder than it looks outside [Chorus] (Pinch me) It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone then you (Pinch me) Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn when you (I'm still asleep) Try to see the world beyond your front door (Please God) Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile when you (Tell me) Realize that with a guy my size it might take a while just to (I'm still asleep) Try to figure out what all this is for [Verse 2] It's the perfect time of day To throw all your cares away Put the sprinkler on the lawn And run through with my gym shorts on Take a drink right from the hose And change into some drier clothes Climb the stairs up to my room Sleep away the afternoon [Chorus] (Pinch me) It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone then you (Pinch me) Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn when you (I'm still asleep) Try to see the world beyond your front door (Please God) Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile when you (Tell me) Realize that with a guy my size it might take a while just to (I'm still asleep) Try to figure out what all this is for [Bridge] Pinch me, pinch me 'Cause I'm still asleep Please God, tell me That I'm still asleep [Verse 3] On an evening such as this (Yo) It's hard to tell if I exist If I packed a car and leave this town Who'll notice that I'm not around? I could hide out under there I just made you say "underwear" I could leave but I'll just stay All my stuff's here anyway [Chorus] (Pinch me) It's like a dream you try to remember but it's gone then you (Pinch me) Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn when you (I'm still asleep) Try to see the world beyond your front door (Please God) Take your time 'cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile when you (Tell me) Realize that with a guy my size it might take a while just to (I'm stiIll asleep) Try to figure out what all this is for [Outro] (I'm still asleep) (Pinch me) Try to figure out what all this is for (I'm still asleep) (Pinch me) Try to see the world beyond your front door (I'm still asleep) (Pinch me) Try to figure out what all this is for (I'm still asleep)
