Liner Notes

This is about when your brain wants to stay in bed all day, but your body wants to move! When in doubt, drive around.

Lyrics

When you’re staying in bed
On a hot summer day
Can’t get out of your head
Can’t get out of your way
They are tearing one down
The construction is loud
You’re avoiding the crowds
Taking over the town

For the bicycle race
And the all county fair
They could tell by your face
That you don’t really care
You just go through the motions
And you wander around
Like a ghost on the ocean

Or a ship in the crowd

Windows open sound
Windows open sound
Do you wanna drive around?
Do you wanna drive around?

Thinking back to the days
My emotions were wild
It was good in some ways
I was only a child
Now the neighbors are strange
No more video store

And the day at the range
Doesn’t matter no more
Like a different dream

I was swimming in doubt
When the cigarette seemed
Like the only way out
And that version of me is
Buried deep in the ground
Of a cemetery
Where it won’t be found

Windows open sound
Windows open sound
Do you wanna drive around?
Do you wanna drive around?

Get me out of the hurt
Get me off of my phone
Get me back in the dirt 

Where I really belong
Shut off every TV
Make the mania stop
Leave the neon city

Let it crackle and pop
When you’re laying in bed
On a hot summer night
And you’re swimming in sweat
And your spinning with fright

Just the hum of the fan
And a sliver of moon
And you know that you can
But you don’t know how soon

Windows open sound
Windows open sound
Do you wanna drive around?
Do you wanna drive around?

Let’s see The Magician
I don’t wanna spend July inside
