I read the paper just the other day |
|
About a buddy of mine who headed to an early grave |
|
They say he went in his sleep with a smile on his face |
|
Bet he was dreaming 'bout better days |
|
When the crash of the drums hit like waves on a beach |
|
That cheap bass and guitar and our wildest dreams |
|
We were searching for a savior like anybody else |
|
Trying to save ourselves from ourselves |
|
Just a garage band |
|
We weren't alive, we were livin' in Garageland |
|
Our parents all held jobs but we had other plans |
|
We acted like our heroes, they just didn't understand |
|
And we were never afraid to fall |
|
It was us and those four walls |
|
Just a garage band |
|
We weren't alive, we were livin' in Garageland |
|
Nothing else felt so right |
|
Just us, those guitars and a Saturday night |
|
Yeah! |
|
'Cause with a strap on your back, you have wings on your feet |
|
You felt like a king when you walked down the street |
|
We heard those old records and knew we belonged |
|
When the drums hit the groove, we all sing along |
|
Just a garage band |
|
Oh, we were livin' in Garageland |
|
Just a garage band |
|
We weren't alive, we were livin' in Garageland |
|
Nothing else felt so right |
|
It was us, those guitars and a Saturday night. |
