[Verse 1]
Two brothers torn apart
One hurt his head and the other hurt his heart
A story false and also true
Pacific Ocean Blue
He's singing lead and he harmonizes
He forgets the words that he memorizes
He's singing lead---still---out
[Verse 2]
They're picking up what you're sending off
Your face is hard but the words you sing are soft
Hitchiking girls and a songsmith, too
There's no way you knew
Little bird, do you play the drums?
Can you hit this beat, while our cousin hums?
He's singing lead---still---out
[Bridge]
Step by step he's been climbing up
He's in a bed of sand with an empty cup
His hair is long and his board is broken
Every word he wrote was left unspoken
[Verse 3]
One brother shakes his head
"The things you do are never what you said."
Oklahoma will have to do
And California, too
He plays the ba** with a rhythm first
The notes don't matter if the beat is worst
He's singing lead---still---out
