Tarsha Vega: Shine on

Up in a no where town Where there's no where to go but down Ariba en un pueblo Que no esta en nada Walkin' round in circles in the pouring rain Waitin' for ya luck to change The weather vane is spinning out of control wit no directional plane And that's a metaphor for u cause yo ya feelin' the same A shame ya didn't go to college get the G.E.D. Ya play the hoochie up at Hooters on the J.O.B. Complacency I see the boredom slip a tip in ya bra Yo what's happening? It's like ya flippin' burgers for Rob Ay yo u still got time to shine on U can decorate yo life any way that u like U still got time to shine on But u gotsta get out tonite! Up in a nowhere town Where there's nowhere to go but down And we're just kickin' around Where we swim and we sink and drown Ya teachers useta tell ya u were smarter than this They pinch ya booty -fake a smile and then u tease w/ a kiss Ya shift'll end at 1 a.m. and then u cruisin' the strip And u think u the shit but girl it gets old quick U flick a butt u know what's up I tell ya ass to elevate but u be all about the fantasy Ya future can wait So make sure you collect the money first Before u lie down in the bed Freeloadin' never pay ya folks no rent Ya hook up with some kid from down the block and hit the shower Sleepwalkin' thru ya role like Heather Graham in Austin Powers Yo I calls it like I sees it wanna front grown up? Now everybody in together now shut the fuck up Ay yo u still got time to shine on Heaven knows yo I'm feelin' yo fears U still got time to shine on But'cha gotsta get the hell out of here Up in a nowhere town Where there's nowhere to go but down And we're just kickin' around Where we swim and we sink & drown Standin' in the shadow up inside of ya room Wonder when the vibe had turned so blue yo it's the truth Ay yo sometimes u feel so small u wanna crawl in the womb The summertime it come and gone U said you'd move back in June So free yoself from the fears that surrounds u The tide might be high silly girl ain't gonna drown ya U wear your life preserver float into the silver lining And Bob Marley sing "Sun Is Shining" Ay yo u still got time to shine on U can decorate yo life anyway that u like U still got time to shine on But u gotsta get out tonite! Up in a nowhere town Where there's nowhere to go but down And we're just kickin' around Where we swim and we sink and drown Ariba en un pueblo Que no esta en nada
