Stay out super late tonight
Picking apples, making pies
Put a little something in our lemonade
And take it with usWe're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empireTiptoe through our shiny city
With our diamond slippers on
Do our gay ballet on ice
Bluebirds on our shouldersWe're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empireTurn the light out, say goodnight
No thinking for a little while
Let's not try to figure out everything at once
It's hard to keep track of you falling through the skyWe're half awake in a fake empire
We're half awake in a fake empire
