Jimmy Eat World's, "A Praise Chorus"
The Song Lyrics:
Our house in the middle of the street,
Why did we ever meet?
Started my rock 'n' roll fantasy.
Don't, don't, don't let's start,
Why did we ever part?
Kickstart my rock 'n' roll heart.
Why did we ever meet?
Started my rock 'n' roll fantasy.
Don't, don't, don't let's start,
Why did we ever part?
Kickstart my rock 'n' roll heart.
