This Year - The Mountain Goats[00:00:00]
I broke free on a Saturday morning[00:00:28]
I put the pedal to the floor[00:00:32]
Headed north on mills avenue[00:00:35]
And listened to the engine roar[00:00:39]
My broken house behind me[00:00:56]
And good things ahead[00:00:58]
A girl named Cathy[00:00:59]
Wants a little of my time[00:01:01]
Six cylinders underneath the hood[00:01:03]
Crashing and kicking[00:01:05]
Aha [00:01:07]
Listen to the engine whine[00:01:07]
I am going to make it through this year[00:01:09]
If it kills me[00:01:13]
I am going to make it though this year[00:01:14]
If it kills me[00:01:20]
I played video games in a drunken haze[00:01:37]
I was seventeen years young[00:01:41]
Hurt my knuckles punching the machines[00:01:44]
The taste of scotch rich on my tongue[00:01:47]
And then Cathy showed up[00:02:06]
And we hung out[00:02:07]
Trading swigs from a bottle[00:02:08]
All bitter and clean[00:02:10]
Locking eyes[00:02:12]
Holding hands[00:02:14]
Twin high maintenance machines[00:02:15]
I am going to make it through this year[00:02:19]
If it kills me[00:02:22]
I am going to make it though this year[00:02:24]
If it kills me[00:02:29]
I drove home in the California dusk[00:02:32]
I could feel the alcohol inside of me hum[00:02:37]
Pictured the look on my stepfather's face[00:02:40]
Ready for the bad things to come[00:02:43]
I down shifted[00:02:47]
As i pulled into the driveway[00:02:48]
The motor screaming out[00:02:51]
Stuck in second gear[00:02:52]
The scene ends badly[00:02:53]
As you might imagine[00:02:55]
In a cavalcade of anger and fear[00:02:56]
There will be feasting and dancing[00:03:00]
In Jerusalem next year[00:03:04]
I am going to make it through this year[00:03:07]
If it kills me[00:03:11]
I am going to make it though this year[00:03:12]
If it kills me[00:03:17]
