When we first arrived we walked to places
Covered our eyes to save our screwed up faces
Then we cowered in our cars to get around the block
And hit the AC because damn it was hot
We bought the biggest and cheapest which was one and the same
And in a couple of days we'd throw it away
We had a good time, the full experience
Living in our united state of no apparent consequence
We had a good time
We spent our money downtown and hit the top floors
High above the curbs and all the others we ignored
And we didn't have to stop at the end of the night
We would take the party back 'cause we were feeling alright
We'd get lucky on the highway when we're traveling home
We’d do the steps for the cops they’d just let us go
We had a good time, the full experience
Living in our united state of no apparent consequence
We had a good time

She's writing to the world
Her words are not enough
We've got to see the girl
It'll get her figures up
She's breaking every line
but the truth is drying up
And slipping into lies
And tweaking every photograph
And I still drive her further
As I thumb through like a pervert
And my nameless faceless words
Really tell her what she’s worth
Push push push
Don't you want to make it far
Standing on your tip toes
We know we got you working hard
Push push push
Now I see all of you
In nothing but a smile
You've given in an inch
And somebody went the mile
But I'm weak to my libedo
And I'll punch it in the window
So my money moves like water
finding every filthy corner
CHORUS
So where does it leave me
When i get in at night
Where are my boundaries
What is real life
I got candle light hold you tight treat you right or
Ripped tights sodomite skintight vulcanite
Push push push
Don't you wanna play the part
Because this is a man's world
We know we got you working hard
Don't you want to make it far
Standing on your tip toes
We know we got you working hard
Push push push

Open the page
Don’t look away
The word is in flames
There’s nobody safe but I’m alright
Look at the screen
It’s only TV
You know it ain’t real
And that’s how it feels and I’m alright
We can’t give a damn about everyone
The world would be all worry and we want our fun
We can’t pick a fight, not on every night
Another weekend’s coming thank you, frankly I’m alright
Pushed through the door
It falls to the floor
Might be my call
I just ignore it I’m alright
We’re hitting the ground
It’s happening now
They’re dropping around me
Just when I feel like I’m alright
They can’t give a damn about everyone
And now I can’t do nothing for anyone
I wanna pick a fight but my hands are tied
Another week, if only, thank you frankly I’d say alright

Supertramp

Sunrise reaching toward my lights
Over the asphalt an inch at a time
It stings my wide eyes as we race to meet
The road runs - black tar across the sand
Poured from the night and the city and man
And I don’t stop when the pavement ends, when the rubber’s shred and the fuel is spent
Making my way from this waste
Getting some distance from the human race
Taking a ride far off the off ramp
Share it with me make it real (x3)
Be the Supertramp
my name, my paper trail, another life
buried, torn up or set alight
And you won’t reach me on the telephone today, tomorrow couldn’t say, if ever again
CHORUS
I don’t understand
Why everyone
Every person is so bad
To one another so often
Living the lies
I want out
Pushing careers
I want out
For new cars
I want out
And giant TVs
I want out….
CHORUS
