Oliver Pesch - Shelly (lollapalooza)

I had just left town for a day
Had to wipe my face clean
There was too much coming my way
I headed for the sea

Now this really isn't California with it's caramel salty sea
Not even close if you ask me

But everywhere there's a shot of redemption
That's what I'm looking for here
They say you'll find it when you're not looking
That's when she came to me

Though this really isn't California with it's caramel salty sea
She took me for all that I am
Something I couldn't understand
Shelly, this is a lollapalooza
I ain't a holiday cruiser, baby
I am a shell of a man As the day turned into the night
Shelly was soothing me
She said: "If nothing ever works the way you want it to
Why don't you stay with me?"

Even though this really isn't California with it's caramel salty sea
She took me for all that I am
Enough to make me her man

Shelly, this is a lollapalooza
I ain't a holiday cruiser baby. I am a shell of a man
Shelly, this is the face of a loser
I really ain't a straight shooter, baby
I am a shell of a man

Though she took me for all that I was
The wounds got to deep, it got dangerous
I knew it could last but I left, with the break of day
I never saw Shelly again
Though I heard she got married to her best friend
It must've been for the best
But you were my Shelly
Shelly, Shelly

Shelly, this is a lollapalooza
I ain't a holiday cruiser, baby
I am a shell of a man
Shelly, that's my Shelly
