lyrics

I'm comin' over, we're gonna talk
Let's grab a coffee, go for a walk
It's been so long, tell me how you've been
I'll tell you about what's been happenin'

I know it's nice to reminisce
About the days that we all miss
Back when we didn't know our future
But it's been eight years, why am I talking to ya

Is this a pyramid scheme
Is this a really weird dream
Are you gonna sell me protein
Or expensive skin cream

All of our friends are getting married now
Cos they never left that shitty town
But then you tell me that you're engaged
When I just got back from my exchange

I know it's nice to reminisce
About the days that we all miss
But we're getting older and we're movin' on
You tell me about your new job

Is it a pyramid scheme
Is this a really weird dream
Are you gonna sell me protein
Or expensive skin cream

Is this a pyramid scheme
Why are you talking to me
Is this a pyramid scheme
Why are you talking to me
Is this a pyramid scheme
Why are you talking to me
Is this a pyramid scheme
Why are you talking to me
