Montrose
Man Overboard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
At the least to check in cause I just miss her grin
And to show
That I didn't really never wanna see you again
And my heart
Caves in when I look at you
This is so hard
Do you take pictures off the walls
When you know I'm coming to your room
Do you hide all the stuffed animals the other boys bought for you
I wasn't surprised
She was chillin' lookin' hot in her bed smoking pot
And I kept my distance I was a "good boy"
And my heart
Caves in when I look at you
This is so hard
Do you take pictures off the walls
When you know I'm coming to your room
Do you hide all the stuffed animals the other boys bought for you

I figured I'd go
I decided to go
At the least to check in cause I just miss her grin
At least to see her smile, I went to check on her

I wasn't surprised She was chillin' lookin' hot in her bed smoking pot And I kept my distance I was a "good boy"
I wasn't shocked to see her lying in her bed, appearing attractive, while smoking marijuana. But, I refrained from getting close and behaved like a gentleman.
