Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mom’s minivan
Stale fries
Cardboard smell
Humming lights
Rewound tapes
Plastic fight
My brother grabs the last good title
New releases
Crooked rows
Thumb on dreams in stickered coats
Flip the cases
Heart on go
Till I hit that awful little note — “all rented”
[Chorus]
Blockbuster blue
Standing in the glow with an empty view
Every single cover saying “checked out
Too”
Growing up was learning that the best ones
Aren’t for you
Blockbuster blue
Kicking at the carpet by the return chute
Friday night forever in that waiting room
Learning disappointment by the snack bar
Blockbuster blue
[Verse 2]
Crushed list on my sleeve
Every week the same three
Circle dates on magazine
Like I could summon up a screen by wanting
Sticky floor
Stale gum
Strangers’ laughs
Buzzing hum
Try to trade my pick for crumbs
Grab a movie I don’t want and call it “classic”
[Chorus]
Blockbuster blue
Standing in the glow with an empty view
Every single cover saying “checked out
Too”
Growing up was learning that the best ones
Aren’t for you
Blockbuster blue
Kicking at the carpet by the return chute
Friday night forever in that waiting room
Learning disappointment by the snack bar
Blockbuster blue
[Bridge]
Now it’s endless scroll
Endless scroll (ooh)
Everything and nothing
All at once on hold
But I miss that hurt that had a face
That little plastic “out” sign staring me in place
[Chorus]
Blockbuster blue
Standing in the glow with an empty view
Every single cover saying “checked out
Too”
Growing up was learning that the best ones
Aren’t for you
Blockbuster blue
Kicking at the carpet by the return chute
Friday night forever in that waiting room
Learning disappointment by the snack bar
Blockbuster blue (hey!)
