We were kids what did we know?
You don't put jump seats in El Caminos
But the man at the wheel could never hurt us
He could circumvent the laws of inertia
And the Earth turned under our spokes
We got abraded but we never broke
And we rode down to the five and dime to buy pop rocks and coke
'Cause we heard that some kid died doing that
Now our heads are far from our feet
We should walk like giants down the street
But the sky is always falling on our heads
And we count the monsters underneath our bed
We're gonna crash into the terminal with no guarantees or miracles
Why don't we take a breath and laugh like we only have a minute left?
Let the Earth turn under our spokes
Let's get abraded and let's go broke
Let's ride down to the five and dime to buy pop rocks and coke
'Cause you know that we won't die doing that
Yeah you know that we won't die doing that.
