Lyrics
Thank you for dinner last night at Los Margaritos I'm sorry I complained about the quality of the beef in my burrito I'm sorry I said I'd rather be eating a bag of Cheetos I'm sorry I said I'd rather be bathing in a bathtub full of Fritos I wish we could go back right now to Los Margaritos I wish we could all go back right now to Los Margaritos Now everyone has flown away and I'm watching the day fade I've got no plans tonight, nobody's calling, it's a Saturday It's April Fool's and I've got no pranks, no practical jokes today I'm the asshole alone on the couch who rained on everyone's parade Now I'm sitting here alone watching the tourists' boat float away Now I'm sitting here watching the ferry boat float away In the moment I couldn't help but wish to wiggle out I try to put my smiling face on but I couldn't control my bow, pow pow pow pow And the kids are young, I feel so dumb Cause I never know what to say to them And I sit there remembering the time I was their age in amazement [?] It's complicated stuff, my brain is like a loaded washer being spun Spun, my brain is like a loaded washer being spun Thank you for dinner last night, it really was the sweetest thing It's nice remembering now, as things can be in hindsight you're reflecting The guacamole wasn't bad, the chips were okay The lemon wedge was fresh, right there on the edge of my glass of iced tea I wish I was big enough to overcome my tension and my unease But who says sitting around with those who you love is always an easy breeze? Who says sitting around with those whom you love is an easy breeze? The elements and idiosyncrasies and convoluted complexities The baggage, the history, what things are like now Compared to how they used to be Remember the times we put our toes in the ocean and we went tidepooling? Remember when we could walk to the shore and back without moaning or groaning? I'm definitely not a kid anymore, going yard to yard lawnmowing I'm definitely not a kid anymore, going from house to house corning We're definitely not kids anymore In the backseat of our parent's car, taking trips to Niagara Falls We're definitely not kids anymore Wondering if our parents are in the other room, listening to our phone calls Anyhow, thank you again for dinner at Los Margaritos Next time, dinner on me, let's try Chapino's It's lonely tonight, eating my celery sticks and sipping on Pellegrino I wish we could all be together again right now Straining our necks to watch kitty cat video Together as a family having dinner at Los Margaritos I wish we could all go back right now to Los Margaritos I wish we could all go back right now to Los Margaritos
