Used to drive around in your Wrangler
In the deadbeat town,
in the parking lot
We would talk about all the drama
And nothing better to do
Now I go out with my new friends
To a party downtown in a new dress
Till the liquor runs out every weekend
Go out with somebody new
You could say that all my dreams came true
Oh,
what an underwhelming view
Thought that it was real,
thought that it was worth it
At the window, everything was looking perfect I didn't dream,
it's not what it seems
Thought that I was fine,
sitting in the backseat
In the mirror, really looked like I was happy
Caught in a dream,
so something in my head said
I'm sorry, you were just looking at plastic palm trees
Plastic palm trees
Didn't know you need a motive
To keep a friend around
To find a boyfriend who doesn't mess around
But if you saw me doing well,
you'd hit me out of the blue
You could say that all my dreams came true
Oh,
what an oh so lonely view
Thought that it was real,
thought that it was worth it
Out the window,
everything was looking perfect, I didn't dream
It's not what it seems
Thought that I was fine,
sitting in the backseat
In the mirror, really looked like I was happy Caught in a dream
Something in my head said,
I'm sorry You were just looking at plastic palm trees
Plastic palm trees
It's not how it used to be
Staring at
plastic
palm trees
It's not how it used to be
