Lyrics

Mmm, it's been a long, long day
And I know I shouldn't feel this way

Pulled up past eleven, under neon glow
That cooler hummin' low and slow
Wrapped in plastic, sittin' there alone
Salmon callin' to my soul
I know better, yeah, I've been told
But hunger makes the brave and bold
This little roll's a risk I take
For love I shouldn't make

I can see the headlines flash,
Fool in love with bad sashimi trash
Still, my heart says just one bite
Guess I'm fallin' tonight

Oh, gas station sushi, what have you done to me
You're danger wrapped in destiny
I know you're trouble, I know it's wrong
But I've been lonely way too long
Oh, gas station sushi, I can't resist your sin
Even if I don't survive what's within
Love shouldn't hurt, but you make it lush
I'll take the bite, feel the rush

That rice too cold, that soy too thin
Still I dive right in again
You taste like midnight, sweet regret
The best mistake I ever met
My stomach's turning, my heart still beats
You're poison dressed in spicy heat
I know this pain, but I can't deny
You're the reason, and I'm the why

Oh, common sense, you let me go
I'm drowning in that wasabi glow

Oh, gas station sushi, what have you done to me
You're danger wrapped in destiny
I know you're trouble, I know it's wrong
But I've been hungry way too long
Oh, gas station sushi, I can't resist your sin
Even if I don't survive what's within
Love shouldn't burn, but I can't hush
I'll take the bite, feel the rush

Maybe love's just food for pain
Maybe I'll never learn again
But if this is my final meal
At least I felt something real

Oh, gas station sushi, you got the best of me
Rolling deep in mystery
I know you're wrong, but you taste so right
Like danger kissed in fluorescent light
Oh, gas station sushi, I'm under your spell
Heaven or bathroom, time will tell
If this is love, then I'll confess
You're my sweetest, sickest mess

Mmm, I shouldn't, but I did
Gas station sushi
Still worth it
