lyrics

Lyrics:

We left a joint just after two
Me and my new-found motley crew
Headin toward a new locale for beer and shooters
When one woman outta three
Said, “You’ll ride along with me”
And I straddled that gal’s mean, green motor scooter

As we careened the dark hutong
She said, “I haven’t known you long,
But I’m certain why you’re so long far from home.”
I said, “Lay it on me, dear,”
Says she, “You’re old enough to hear
That you’ve a classic case of Peter Pan Syndrome.”

I told her, Peter Pan and Neverland have shit to do with me
So you can stick your knee-jerk judgements and pop-psychology
The legends are that country stars get old and darkest before dawnin
So, take the second bar to the right, then drive straight on ‘til mornin

When we reached a roundabout,
She turned her head a bit to shout,
“I know a hundred guys like you and they’re all dyin!”
But I was fresh out of bon mots
Too busy thinkin happy thoughts
And I swear that motor scooter took to flyin

Lord knows Peter Pan and Neverland have shit to do with me
So you can fuck your knee-jerk judgements and pop-psychology
The legends are that country stars get old and darkest before dawning
So, take the second bar to the right, then drive straight on ‘til morning
