Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Please enjoy this ride, girl
Don't know when we'll arrive, girl
Please enjoy this ride
(enjoy this ride) , girl
Don't know when we'll arrive
(don't know when we'll arrive) , girl

Oh (la la la la) let's just smoke (la la la la) with me (la la la la) with me
Oh (la la la la) let's just smoke (la la la la) with me (la la la la) with me
Oh (la la la la) let's just smoke (la la la la) with me (la la la la) with me
Oh (la la la la) let's just smoke (la la la la) with me (la la la la) with me

I'd like to welcome you guys
To The Last Party just sit back
And listen for real
Maybe I'll come back one day

Oh, wasting time oh, wasting time with you

Oh, wasting time oh, wasting time with you
Oh, wasting time (ha)
Oh, wasting time with you
(it's funny how that works) oh, wasting time
(I don't love anyone, I love myself)




Oh, wasting time with you
