Winona Lyrics

I was seven years old,
You were nineteen.
When I first saw you it was on the TV
We had VHS,
And all the rest
Lydia was your name
And I was obsessed

Call me crazy
Call me stupid
Call me anything you want
Don't act like you didn’t
Fantasize when you were young

So come sixteen
again I saw you on the screen
Only it was cause you got caught doing your thing
Now I'm not a high class retail outlet
But I'd love for you to steal my heart

Winona, I'd like to get to know ya
Let's burn Saks Fifth Ave. into the ground!
(yeah!)

Steven Cooley, definition of tool
He was looking for an oscar when he prosecuted you
He's just pissed off
cause he can't act
Tried to make himself famous
Televised the attack

Call me crazy
Call me stupid
Call me anything you want
You know he probably stole a pack of gum when he was young
But you kept your cool
You kept calm
Even though we all knew that he was the one in the wrong now

I'm not a high class retail outlet
But I'd love for you to steal my heart

Winona, I'd like to get to know ya
Let's burn Saks Fifth Ave. into the ground
Winona, I'd like to get to know ya
Let's burn Saks Fifth Ave. into the ground

December twelfth, two-thousand and one
I gotta gotta ask why didn’t you run
If I had known I woulda been outside
With the engine running on a getaway ride (yeah!)

Winona, I'd like to get to know ya
Let's burn Saks Fifth Ave. into the ground
Winona, I'd like to get to know ya
(December twelfth, two-thousand and one
I gotta gotta ask why didn’t you run)
Let's burn Saks Fifth Ave. into the ground
(If I had known I woulda been outside
With the engine running on a getaway ride)

I think this is right...(or close, a little closer). I'm listening to the mastered version on the full-length:

Call me crazy Call me stupid Call me anything you want Don't act like you did Fantasize when you were young

So come sixteen again I saw you on the screen Only just cause you got caught just doing your thing Now I'm not a high class retail outlet But I'd love for you to steal my heart

"Let's burn Saxfield down into the ground"

it should be "Let's burn Saks Fifth Ave. into the ground"

Saks Fifth being the store Winona shoplifted from in 2001 [December twelfth, two-thousand and one I gotta gotta ask why did you run? ]

a couple corrections:

"Don't act like you did Fantasize when you were young"

that should be didn't, instead of did

"On another (???) just doing your thing " I sing as "only nervous cos you got caught doing your thing"

that may be wrong, but it's my best guess...

"He was looking for a rascal when he prosecuted you yeah" rascal should be oscar

Cover art for Winona lyrics by Totally Michael

"Seman cool, the definition of tool"

seman cool should be Stephen Cooley, the los angeles district attorney.

and just a guess, "So come sixteen again I saw you on the screen On another (???) just doing your thing Now I'm not a high class retail outlet But I'd love for you to steal my heart"

could it be "so come sixteen/again i saw you on the screen/only this time cause you got caught doing your thing"?
