lyrics

LIGHTS ARE ON , BUT NOBODY'S HOME

it's been weeks since I said goodbye
cause all you ever wanna do is get high
I peeled out the driveway and honked the horn
my F150 and a heart that's torn
ooh, ooh Nobody's Home

you keep me from fallin' in love again
you're watching that crap on CNN
I come around hoping you're home
i sit on your porch & you won't answer your phone
ooh, ooh, Nobody's Home

the lights are on but there's nobody home

the lights are on but there's nobody home
you got the brains of a garden gnome
you buy all that bull that comes down the tube
maybe it's time you went back to school
ooh, ooh, nobody's home

I thought I knew you when we were so young
I said I loved you and then I got stung
you're so self centered you do as you please
you seem to think you're the bee's knees
ooh, ooh nobody's home
the lights are on but there's nobody home
the lights are on but there's nobody home
