Go Outside & Drive - Blues Traveler[00:00:00]
I 've really got to clean up my room[00:00:06]
You know its been so long[00:00:08]
Since i've seen my floor[00:00:09]
It's getting kind of scary in fact i suspect[00:00:11]
That when i finally clear away[00:00:14]
I won't know her anymore[00:00:15]
How we'll have grown so far apart[00:00:17]
From those early days[00:00:19]
With the fresh new start[00:00:20]
So in the end it won't matter at all[00:00:22]
So why should i bother[00:00:25]
With the rise and the fall[00:00:26]
So i quietly lay back down[00:00:27]
And watch tv[00:00:29]
But these are the things we tell ourselves[00:00:33]
Eventual stories designed to amuse[00:00:39]
It's a game we play and we play it well[00:00:44]
In fact we're so damn good[00:00:49]
That we try to lose[00:00:50]
So we can keep hiding[00:00:54]
So we can survive[00:00:56]
And keep on believing[00:00:58]
Someday we'll go outside & drive[00:00:59]
Gonna go outside & drive [00:01:03]
I have resolved not to leave my house[00:01:06]
Till my floor comes back[00:01:08]
And my room is clean[00:01:10]
So i'm really kind of glad[00:01:11]
That my tv's here[00:01:12]
While i concoct my plan to fulfill my dream[00:01:13]
Now won't that be wonderful[00:01:17]
When i'll finally be done[00:01:18]
You know i just can't wait for it[00:01:20]
Then i'll start to have fun[00:01:21]
It's getting hard lately to concentrate[00:01:22]
All my appointments cancelled[00:01:25]
Cause i'm horribly late[00:01:26]
You know i think i need a prison[00:01:27]
In order to dream of being free[00:01:29]
But these are the things we tell ourselves[00:01:33]
Eventual stories designed to amuse[00:01:39]
It's a game we play and we play it well[00:01:44]
In fact we're so damn good[00:01:49]
That we try to lose[00:01:50]
So we can keep hiding[00:01:55]
So we can survive[00:01:56]
And keep on believing[00:01:58]
Someday we'll go outside & drive[00:01:59]
Now weeks have gone by[00:02:28]
And my room's not done[00:02:29]
In fact i could say[00:02:31]
That it's gotten much worse[00:02:32]
Amongst the crumpled letters[00:02:34]
The mood's quite perverse[00:02:36]
But i got a new tv with a remote control[00:02:37]
Styrofoam and instructions fill the hole[00:02:41]
Where i once cleared a path[00:02:44]
Where i once blazed a trail[00:02:45]
To the bathroom but i fear that a nail[00:02:47]
Is buried there no so i step very rarely[00:02:49]
And try not to get out of bed[00:02:53]
You know tomorrow i'll get up[00:03:00]
And i'll walk out my door[00:03:02]
And life will return to the way that it was[00:03:03]
But i think i'm getting sick[00:03:06]
I'd better give it a day[00:03:07]
It mustn't get a foothold [00:03:09]
But it usually does[00:03:10]
So i'll sit right here till i'm old and gray[00:03:12]
I need my rest after all i'm wasting away[00:03:14]
And i just saw a cockroach crawl[00:03:17]
Out of my sneaker[00:03:19]
I think he's biding his time[00:03:20]
Till i get somewhat weaker[00:03:21]
Things could still turn out alright[00:03:25]
As long as i'm not dead[00:03:31]
As long as i'm [00:03:35]
I'm i'm not [00:03:40]
I'm not dead no i'm not dead[00:03:44]
But these are the things we tell ourselves[00:03:51]
Eventual stories designed to amuse[00:03:56]
It's a game we play and we play it well[00:04:01]
In fact we're so damn good[00:04:07]
That we try to lose[00:04:08]
So we can keep hiding[00:04:12]
So we can survive[00:04:14]
And keep on believing[00:04:15]
Someday we'll go outside & drive[00:04:16]
Gonna go outside & drive[00:04:20]
