lyrics

shelby smiles and holds back a grimace
counts down the hours and minutes
she’s working in the ice cream game

she’s been here since she was 11
labor laws don’t phase uncle kevin
he hired her on mother’s day

hey!

but tomorrow shelby’s out taking pictures
no need for tripods or fixtures
she knows the sunrise says it all

reflecting her incessant nostalgia
for a time when things didn’t matter
i think she gets it from our mom

bulls on parade
bringing her back to the days
when she rocked and when she raged

scoops and cones
baby, they don’t break her bones
but she’s feeling so alone

shelby’s going back going back
shelby’s going back going back
going back back to community college

another wasted fucking year!

me and her, we’ve been through the ringer
but i know we’ll find a singer
i know we’ll be there in the end

millennial, oh, malaise
hooked to an IV of praise
so it goes and so she stays

we’re just the same
we think we’re entitled to fame
but her art sucks and i’m insane

shelby’s going back going back
shelby’s going back going back
going back back to community college
