about

Another tune in my growing list of why-can't-I-be-Frank-Turner-or-maybe-the-Wonder-Stuff repertoire. Loosely dedicated to our fearless judge this round, Tim Beeman.

lyrics

well, it’s another lost day in suburbia
and all the girls are making up for lost time
you never thought that losing face would disturb ya
but now you’re waiting for the church bell’s chime

I think you know
that it’s high time
to throw your worries into the ring
you’ve got to go
pull the trigger
don’t let ‘em feel the summer’s sting

and if you ever wanna say you feel like running away
the bastards got to running you down
Put your feet to pavement
let your heart lead the way
just ask the Man Who Walks the Town
I’ll keep the lights on, engines running

they've gone and put some kind of drug in the air now
it’s really getting harder to breathe
but all the hipsters and the Ardmore highbrows
You’d think they’re walking on a trampoline

You’re not that gone
we can find ya
the plastic’s off the furniture now
just carry on
I’m behind ya
step up and take your victory bow

and if you ever wanna say you feel like running away
the bastards got to running you down
Put your feet to pavement
let your heart lead the way
just ask the Man Who Walks the Town
I’ll keep the lights on, engines running

there’s a case of Scottish Ale
at the Shell on Cloverdale
you know I’ll meet you there
if you think you can
make it

and if you ever wanna say you feel like running away
the bastards got to running you down
Put your feet to pavement
let your heart lead the way
just ask the Man Who Walks the Town
I’ll keep the lights on, engines running
