LYRICS:
Your mama was a doctor
Mama was a fire alarm
Eastern European
I’m gonna miss you when you’re gone
Cause you know I like the view
Every single time I look at you
They raised you kinda proper
They raised you like a soldier girl
But I know you’re softer
So why you looking so concerned?
I know you
Don’t like PDA But just for now I
Think that it’s okay
So hold me close and
Kiss me now in the fake grand central
Hair tied up with a broken pencil
Couple next to you
Says go get a hotel room
Guess they never felt this way
So disapproving
They don’t like what we’re doing
We don’t have no time to waste
It’s just a little PDA
Get you in the bedroom
And you set the world on fire
But outside of our cocoon
It’s like I’m just another guy
Because you’re so preoccupied
Why you think that
Strangers gonna mind?
If you come a little closer
Forget about your suitcase babe
Cause you know when we’re older
We’re gonna laugh about today
Soon you’ll be so far away
And I’m just gonna have to sublimate
If you can’t say it
Write a letter kinda confidential
Sign your name with a broken pencil
Couple next to you
Says go get a hotel room
Guess they never felt this way
So disapproving
They don’t like what we’re doing
We don’t have no time to waste
It’s just a little PDA
So baby I just need a memory to sustain me
Cause I get so crazy worried that you’ll go and replace me
So show me with an action
That on the train you won’t get plastered and hook up with some model slash actor in the bathroom
All that I need, is confirmation,
By making a scene in the station
Before they call, tell their children to look away
You’ll be on the train
Rollin’ away. Rollin’ away
Couple next to you
Says go get a hotel room
Guess they never felt this way
So disapproving
They don’t like what we’re doing
We don’t have no time to waste
It’s just a little PDA

[@c.lawnmower_]

My sister thought that, instead of broken pencil, it was broken pickle. I never want to unhear that.

[@tomtomandlala1031]

Radioactive Powerhouse I want to hear it but I can't 😂

[@jessp4016]

😂 I hear it now and it's actually fun to hear. I thought it'd negatively affect it but I was wrong

[@rutholiver5075]

LOL!!

[@meganchevarie8942]

LOL

[@user-vk2ev2fv3t]

Colin Law-nmower "write your name with a broken pickle"

[@napkino5100]

After many many hours of searching, I have found this song!!! So glad I found it !!

[@FBG_Cory]

Same i forgot the name!

[@evangelinebudd112]

I wonder how many more singers there are out there that haven't been discovered yet that are so good like Scott Helman

[@alexandrelambert4923]

2

[@shivalisharma46]

3

[@brittaniesidebottom]

I discovered him through his cover with Walk Off The Earth (I can’t feel my face)

[@celeryystick]

Ayeeee he’s from Ontario like me

[@abbeyfranczek2648]

my city is 20 mins away from his hometown

[@polariized]

and me

[@spot884]

Same

[@sammylinde6373]

Same BTW Ontario’s Lengendary 😏👌

[@samyargh.6372]

Like me too

[@aaronfonseca6031]

Finally a good song on the radio

[@trevorwaechter2183]

such an original song. i feel honored to hear lyrical passion

[@FeeblePenguin]

And on top of that the chorus melody is taken directly from the song shake it out by Florence and the Machine! ua-cam.com/video/mMTuXnLiZ2k/v-deo.htmlh3m45s but you're right it's darn catchy haha

[@amandamiddlemiss9205]

Hi

[@dougxvale]

Justin, Drake, Shawn and The Weeknd are representing Canada worldwide... Scott's left. He deserves it.

[@Kyrow]

So damn catchy

[@dervonlewis2040]

Kyro ikr my brother and I were singing this in the car because we heard this on the radio like 1 million times and when we got out we were still singing.

[@tomtomandlala1031]

I know!!!! I sing it all the time on the radio!

[@markapczynski4955]

It's the rip at the beginning,heard it today first time ,grabs you pulls you in by that rip

[@atlf3357]

The chorus is a melodic masterpiece so catchiness is definitely expected

[@kimberlygillmore8968]

This guy is Awesome he should be globally famous by now

[@aniruddhaa.4329]

Scott Helman definitely should be receiving a lot more attention because his songs are amazing especially PDA

[@stapoldy_propaganda_account]

this is definitely my favorite song!!! i live in canada so it plays a lot on the radio, and it's really nostalgic to me because i listened to it years ago when it was new. i've always really liked it, but not this much!
i saw the word "pda," in a fanfiction recently and i was just like, "omg, that's a song!!!!" and then i re-listened to it, and *then* i started listening to other scott helman songs, and now he's one of my favorite artists 😭😭
this song, and all of his other music, is CRIMINALLY underrated!!! especially origami, that's one of my other favorites.

[@edwinguan2236]

This song was on the radio all the time during my trip in Canada 2017, and I’m glad I was there to hear it.

[@aperson7899]

Know I'm late but that's because Canada has laws regarding a requirement of a certain amount of content from Canadian artists being put on in comparison to from other artists
I'm usually more of a free market kind of guy but I guess I can make an exception for this song becoming a hit

[@AL-vg2yo]

I'll never get over this song

[@mikaylag.w.8738]

I met scott helman and gave him a hug it was so amazing I love him so much I wish he was my big brother and that moment when I huged him will last forever

[@DirigiblePlum]

So wholesome 😊

[@leahcrete]

I knew this song when it came on the radio and I screamed OMG ITS SCOTT HELMAN OMG

[@adamliu4194]

same virgin radio:)

[@oceanfarmer420]

SAMEEEEE (also virgin radio lmao)

[@ThatGuyWithSomeSubs]

IKR

[@declanmillar6356]

I hear this song 10 times a day, 4 days a week at work against my fucking will. I'm screaming 'OMG ITS SCOTT HELMAN OMG', but for very different reasons.

[@spartacuss5081]

I was like WHO IS THIS GUY then I searched up broken pencil and this popped up

[@HugoCornellier]

Here before he’s famous.

[@garces718]

im still shook a year later its still not famous wtf??? this is literally the nostalgic music people love these days

[@tommysamson587]

i realize it is pretty off topic but do anybody know of a good site to watch newly released tv shows online?

[@vihaanwalter2350]

@Tommy Samson lately I have been using Flixzone. Just google for it :)

[@maddenhuxley2390]

@Vihaan Walter Definitely, I have been watching on FlixZone for years myself :D

[@tommysamson587]

@Vihaan Walter thanks, I went there and it seems to work :D I really appreciate it!

[@getreal8728]

Why is he not more popular? He’s soooo gooood ❤️

[@JeffreyJetsKohut]

US radio stations aren't playing it is the issue.

[@sportsnerd100]

Dude uses so much vocabulary he could be an English professor

[@noha9071]

lol what? The most (edit: *only*) complicated word in this song is 'sublimate'. And I say complicated relative to the rest of the lyrics.
That hardly counts as "so much vocabulary" -_-

[@kendall2039]

he actually kinda looks like one too if i'm being honest!!

[@diegonoriega7384]

Who else loved this song after it was released.?

[@godlyassassin5538]

Hight Stile Don't know how I would've like it before it was released

[@brianl8072]
