[Verse 1]
I met a boy called Archie
We were seventeen
He took me to a party by the cemetery
Money in the jukebox
Waited for our song
But we were in the garden
When Britney came on
He said

[Chorus]
If you get a way out
Call me when you land
I've been making posters
Tryna start a band
Waiting on the weekend
There's nothing for me here
So don't you be a stranger
Don't you disappear
Don't you disappear
Don't you disappear

[Verse 2]
He used to call me weekly
Ask about the news
A shooting spree on 12th Street
A crash in Syracuse
The band is fit to break, yeah
You're giving it till spring
You play it till they wake up
But no one wants to sing
He said
[Chorus]
If you get a way out
Call me when you land
I've been making posters
Tryna start a band
Waiting on the weekend
There's nothing for me here
So don't you be a stranger
Don't you disappear
Don't you disappear

[Bridge]
I won't hate you if you don't
I ain't waiting by the phone
But if you ever make that call
I'll meet you on the dance floor

[Chorus]
If you get a way out
Call me when you land
I've been making posters
Tryna start a band
Waiting on the weekend
There's nothing for me here
So don't you be a stranger
Don't you disappear
Don't you disappear
Don't you disappear
Don't you disappear
