Tryin’ to make a livin’
Stratchin’ on my guitar
Sneakin’ through the city
In my big black car
Sneakin’ through the city
In my big black car
I could ask you what you’d do if you were me
Absent of evenin’ to the answerin’ machine

Where have you been
The last five years?
You ask me as if I care
Ah-ah ah-ah

Where have you been
The last five years?
Between Uranus and the stratosphere

Could have one heart
And we’re tryna be smart
Pretty baby I’m getting low
Just like the rest of this god damn world
Pretty baby I’m getting low
Just like the rest of this god damn world
And let’s make love
As if the holy saints
And let’s make love
Until we faint

Where have you been
The last five years?
You ask me as if I care
Ah-ah ah-ah

Where have you been
The last five years?
Between Uranus and the stratosphere

I wanna catch up with you baby for the last five years
I wanna catch up with you baby for the last five years
Yea yea yea I wanna catch up with you for the last five years
I wanna catch up but I’ll sit here

Where have you been
The last five years?
Seeking wisdom so I’m here
Ah-ah ah-ah

Where have you been
The last five years?
Between Uranus and the stratosphere

Where have you been
The last five years?
You ask me as if I care
Ah-ah ah-ah

Where have you been
The last five years?
Between Uranus and the stratosphere

Stratosphere
