Fordite I'm In Love

None

Lyrics

[Intro]


[Verse 1]
I don't care if Monday's matte gray
It’s just a primer coat anyway
Tuesday's a flat and empty blue
Wednesday is waiting for something new
Thursday is a long, slow-drying line
I just don't feel it, it isn't mine
But there’s a secret I hold in my hand
A tiny piece of industrial land

[Chorus]
I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Fordite, I'm in love

[Verse 2]
Saturday, you can wait in the wings
I'm thinking 'bout the heat the oven brings
Three hundred degrees, a thousand times baked
A history that working hands have made
Pastel pink from a '57 Ford
A metallic green the '70s adored
All the overspray, caught in the light
Making all the dull days feel so bright

[Chorus]
I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Fordite, I'm in love

[Bridge]
Dressed up to the nines, a polished stone
A psychedelic map, a world I've known
I can trace the rings, a bullseye swirl
Of every single car in the whole wide world
It’s such a beautiful sound
When your colors come around

[Instrumental]


[Chorus]
I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Fordite, I'm in love

[Outro]
Fordite...
In love...
Cherry red, electric blue...
Fordite...
I'm in love with you...
