San Dimas High School Football Rules

The Ataris

Last night I had a dream that we went to Disneyland,
Went on all the rides, didn't have to wait in line.
I drove you to your house where we stared up at the stars
I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms.

We hung out at the rainbow where we drank til' half past two.
Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with you.
Like crashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss
Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist

These are the things that make me free
I feel like I'm stuck in "stand by me"
This night was too good to be true.

Today I woke up alone wishing you were here with me,
I wanted us to be something that we'd probably never be.
Today you called me up and said you'd see me at our show,
But now I'm stuck debating if I even want to go.

Whitney, don't you understand here what I say is true?
I just want you to know I have a major crush on you.
I'd drive you to Las Vegas and do the things you want to do
I'd even have Wayne Newton dedicate a song to you.

I only wish that this could be
Just dump your boyfriend and go out with me
I swear I'd treat you like a queen.

    Its called San Dimas High School Footbal Rules because kris got lost when looking for this high school. It comes out in Bill and Ted's Excellent adventure and its supposed to be this awesome high school. Anyhow, they suck at football. :-)

    if your'e looking for complex, intricate punk, try nofx's the decline. if you want simple, FUN music that you can connect to, the ataris is definatley recommended. on a personal note, this song describes perfectly the way i feel about this girl. she's a good friend of mine, and i don't really know how to tell her she means more to me than that. she's coming to my band's practice tomorrow, and i'm going to play her this song, if i garner up the balls to.
