| Out in the streets at all hours of the night
|
| Softly bathed in flickering dashboard lights
|
| Hey! |
| There’s no painless
|
| way to say
|
| that I pass on the piece of pie
|
| that you planned as mine
|
| I’m starving too but I’m hungry for life
|
| Not that life,
|
| But my life,
|
| It’s my time
|
| My POS car with the radio playin'
|
| The graveyard jockey is on the air sayin'
|
| «Here's a new hot band outta Oakland…»
|
| And it’s the sound
|
| Of my way out
|
| We make noise
|
| What else could we choose?
|
| We’re gonna be more than local boys
|
| And shake! |
| shake! |
| shake!
|
| The dust off these shoes
|
| I used to watch
|
| This kid turning wrenches next door
|
| He grew up
|
| Engines strewn across the oil stained floor
|
| I got a car
|
| The next year
|
| I knew better but let it fall
|
| into disrepair
|
| I gotta get away
|
| Gotta get away,
|
| Gotta get away from here
|
| But four wheels
|
| aren’t going to get me there
|
| Summer time blues
|
| on the front porch swinger
|
| The jock says that
|
| The Rage got a new singer
|
| The first note
|
| rips through the speaker
|
| And it’s the sound
|
| of my way out
|
| Yeah!
|
| We make noise
|
| What else could we choose?
|
| We’re gonna be more than local boys
|
| And shake! |
| shake! |
| shake!
|
| The dust off these shoes
|
| We make noise
|
| What else could we choose?
|
| We’re gonna be more than local boys
|
| And shake! |
| shake! |
| shake!
|
| The dust off these shoes…
|
| The dust off these shoes…
|
| We’re the wolves
|
| Prowlin' the shadows of these worn down streets
|
| A rabid dose of ambition drives us to the books
|
| To the highways —
|
| To the low-way —
|
| To the air waves —
|
| We’re all just tryin' to get a better look
|
| At what’s beyond the tall grass
|
| That groes around this town
|
| I gotta see the world for myself
|
| And I only know one way to get out
|
| Pick up my ticket to any where but here
|
| It’s got six strings and a soul
|
| I gotta get away, Gotta get away
|
| Gotta get away from here
|
| Turn it up, and rock right out of this whole
|
| We make noise
|
| What else could we choose?
|
| We’re gonna be more than local boys
|
| And shake! |
| shake! |
| shake!
|
| The dust off these shoes
|
| We make noise
|
| What else could we choose?
|
| We’re gonna be more than local boys
|
| And shake! |
| shake! |
| shake!
|
| The dust off these shoes
|
| Shake! |
| Shake! |
| Shake!
|
| Shake! |
| Shake! |
| Shake!
|
| Shake! |
| Shake! |
| Shake!
|
| Shake! |
| Shake! |
| Shake! |
