The road trip




The road trip is dead,
the road trip, its over
it was all in your head
and now, the road is over

go Earth model instead.

It started as route sixty six
then it turned into hitchin
murderers hunting down chicks

and you ended tired and worn
sleeping in a room full of porn

The road trip is dead
the road trip is dead
HEY, HEY, HEY
it was all in your head

All that chrome, wheels
and windshields
the metaphor of go
as if a spiritual journey
into the American Soul

but it was just selling gas
the metaphor, it didn't last,
driving past endless, boring
 farms and grass...

The road trip is dead
the road trip is dead
Hey, hey, hey
it was in your head.

you got into an epic wreck
Lost your keys out in the dreck
"Let's record for posterity
This giddy edge!"
Just boring blurred videos
of asphalt and motel beds

The road trip is dead
the road trip...it died!
No more putting coins
over the deads eyes
For the last river ride.

no mom and pop cafe
just the one neon strip mall
each town like the last
no record of the past...

No more ghost towns
they tore them all down
insurance risks
and they couldn't sell tickets

The road trip is dead
It was all in your head
they wrote it up in books
staged plays, that was the hook

the road trip is dead
get online, instead
and lets talk about something else
That you've read.
