Lyrics for Bicycles
Place your bets, mind vex Time walks across seas, audio Galilee Can't tell you what's bound to be Catching views from my window seat Finding truth in the trees, resolve from the breeze Shiver me timbers, bob and weave as I follow leads Cyclical stir, dash of sweet, two parts bitter Reality's elixir, memories hum as the taste lingers Broke out the back-pedal brake bike Put tape on the tape, dubbed over it twice Second childhood, neither was very nice Took it as a joke, but took note he never said sike Funny, the things you remember your whole life Cheap motel, she can tell who's vice Cheapest thrills was twice the price Scrap metal soldered and drilled into a mic So I was ready when they came, dead of the night Tell 'em I sent you when you get to paradise Place your bets, mind vex Time walks across seas, audio Galilee Can't tell you what's bound to be Catching views from my window seat Finding truth in the trees, resolve from the breeze Shiver me timbers, bob and weave as I follow leads Cyclical stir, dash of sweet, two parts bitter Reality's elixir, memories hum as the taste lingers Interstate interdiction, Dixie, what they whistlin'? Jumped out the jackpot, landed in a tight spot Maze with the Minotaur, cave got a cyclops Raid hit the front door, already out the back in my high tops Ad hoc, pouring in eye drops Always forgot the numbers to my locker lock In class with no books, well-prepared for 'bows and hooks When it's time to fight, left, left, right Later, my peers would invest in gun and knife Your guess as good as mine on a night like tonight Night like tonight
