lyrics

When we were after cinematic
We'd roll the windows done
We'd let the air strike our faces
Nothing could slow us down
We never had a first class adventure
Thank God Tommy was around
He'd race us all across the city
Rubber never saw the ground

If our city was a tabloid
Then we could be the cowboys
I thought we were

Basement door opens at midnight
There's Tim with cigarettes under a street light
I don't know where we're going tonight
but the bag in his pocket means I'll be fine
So we meet them later in a parking lot
They're armed and ready but I'm not
I could head home and forget what I saw
But nothing's going to keep me from coming along

Chorus

If good was only in my imagination
I would have stayed out of that car
My brother's hanging out the window
He's shooting at parked cars
Then suddenly there's a light behind us
The Blue and white of a cop car
He gets us out he says he knows us
Did we start the fire in the park?

No...No...No... How did you know?
I tired to avoid it, But I never really liked it
We always got caught

Less than 12 hours
To clean the mess we caused
We'd better hurry before the real law
Wakes up and we're done for

Chorus

Occasionally, the real world pulls you away from the things that you love; but sometimes, you're reminded that you can come back. I used to be in a band called The Jupiter Project, and then I was in License, then I went toe-to-toe with Giant Battle Wombat and most recently I tried to keep up with the Paper Snakes. ... more
