“Coins for the Arcade” lyrics
Pocket full of Sunday
Pocket full of Sunday
Coins for the arcade
Pocket full of Sunday
I already got paid
I got up without an alarm clock
Left the cereal in the bowl
Found a jacket with a twenty
From a winter long ago
Now the corner shop is open
And the whole day's moving slow
Pocket full of Sunday
Coins for the arcade
Pocket full of Sunday
I already got paid
You said meet me by the fountain
I said give me half an hour
Brought a roll of little quarters
You brought all your bragging power
Now you're beating me at pinball
And I'm happy losing count
I keep buying things for later
Like the good part's up ahead
But you're laughing with my last coin
And I'm here for this instead
Pocket full of Sunday
Coins for the arcade
Pocket full of Sunday
I already got paid
Pocket full of Sunday
Let the afternoon run late
