Going Blonde lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Eyes like the ocean, a couple of tattoos
Hair smellin' like lavender drug-store shampoo
She'll read you your fortune for a couple of dollars
Heal you with crystals and trailer-park water

[Pre-Chorus]
I've only heard stories, I've only seen pictures
But she's safe in my mind, and until I meet her

[Chorus]
I'm goin' blonde and I'm never goin' back
Yeah, blonde like the mama that I never had
She knew what she wanted, she'd give you hell
She was flirty and gorgeous, but tougher than nails

[Post-Chorus]
At least that's what I always thought
So I'm goin' blonde
I'm goin' blonde

[Verse 2]
Once, I was lost, then I was found
Brother and sister trackin' me down
I fell to my knees when I heard their words
That I'd never get the answers to my questions of her
[Pre-Chorus]
She fell off the wagon, couldn't keep clean
But I still cling to the child-made-up memories

[Chorus]
So I'm goin' blonde and I'm never goin' back
Yeah, blonde like the mama that I never had
She knew what she wanted, she'd give you hell
She was flirty and gorgeous, but tougher than nails

[Post-Chorus]
At least that's what I always thought
So I'm goin' blonde
I'm goin' blonde

[Bridge]
I made up this perfect look-up-to person
To fall in her arms in my mind
And I have my reasons and they keep me from sinkin'
And it's not the truth, but, for right now, it's mine

[Chorus]
So I'm goin' blonde and I'm never goin' back
Yeah, blonde like the mama that I never had
She knew what she wanted, she'd give you hell
She was flirty and gorgeous, but tougher than nails
[Outro]
At least that's what I always thought
At least that's what I always thought
So I'm goin' blonde
I'm goin' blonde
I'm goin' blonde
