Fast Times in Tahoe
Elemeno P Lyrics
They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
But I doubt it, I really doubt it
Playing ping pong over oceans, messing with emotions
Messing with my head
Messing with my head
13 hours ago, I'm no longer at home
Fast times in Tahoe
Three thousand miles away
What can I say
Fast times fast times to fast for me
And I don't care what you say
To get me out of the way
I got to get my message through to you
Baby,baby,baby,baby,baby,baby,baby
They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
But I doubt it, I really doubt it
Playing ping pong over oceans, messing with emotions
Messing with my head
And I don't care what you say
To get me out of the way
I got to get my message through to you
Baby,baby,baby,baby,baby,baby,baby
Playing in the Snow
Who oh oh oh
Times in Tahoe
Playing in the Snow
Who oh oh oh
They say, makes the, grow , but I, I really , playing, over
Messing with
Messing with
Fast times in Tahoe
Playing in the Snow
Who oh oh oh
Who oh oh oh
Who oh oh oh
Who oh oh oh

Being an American, one day I got bored and I looked up random rock stations in different countries and I came across TheRockFM and this was the first song I heard on it.

@Jonathon Robinson what do u mean by weird tribalism, it's the culture. if u don't like NZ, move bro
Jonathon Robinson
@Charles Harwood Don't pay attention to the bogans and their weird tribalism. Most NZers will listen to whatever radio station, as long as it's playing music.

The Rock is awesome

My whole life I never really heard the accent in New Zealand songs but now that I've spent almost a year in a different country, it is so obvious, and I love it.

Well done Elemeno P. This song is a classic!
Logan Taylor
Nothin better than a kiwi road trip listening to songs like this
BlimeyGames
