Travel, travel, travel, travel
I'm not able to
Walk upon gravel, gravel, gravel, gravel
Without looking through
So many windows, windows, windows, windows
Into hidden lives
With innuendoes, endoes, endoes, endoes
In their hidden eyes
For so long, so long, so long, so long
I wished that I could leave
So I sing this song, this song, this song, this song
To say what I believe
And I would go, would go, would go, would go
If I just had the time
But I just don't, just don't, just don't, just don't
So I just walk the line
A can of coke, of coke, of coke, of coke
Sits atop a bottle of pills
Waiting to be opened, opened, opened, opened
For some cheapened thrills
A night away, away, away, away
Across the whole country
More than a day, a day, a day, a day
With no care or money

I see you up there with confidence
As you do your silly dance
Your voice goes through the microphone
And for now you're not alone
Until there's a break in the song
And you just stop singing along
Because you do not know the words
It is the common game show curse
You start off with the easy types
And you blaze through em quite alright
And then you go tense up a bit
Cause you don't know the words for shit
So you can try to make some up
Or stand silent while you get made fun of
Until you leave the stage in shame
And you're still broke after this game
You turn to your family for help
But they are all blank-faced as well
You think your dad who is 60
Will be familiar with the oldies
But he doesn't know what's going on
Because all he really wants
Is to be back at his house
Where his cable box is out
