I heard grandpa on my transistor radio |
|
Though he turned in his bones twenty year ago |
|
And he said, "kid, there's something that I'd like to show you, |
|
Get your things, it's time for us to go" |
|
So I grab my backpack, and my flashlight, and a bag of caramel corn |
|
I got my bicycle, and the radio, and I headed on the rode |
|
I said, "i'm ready, for what I'm about to see, yepp" |
|
Headed north 'till the rain had turned to snow |
|
Through rusty towns and dusty gravel road |
|
And I said, "grandpa, where is this thing you wanted to show me?" |
|
He said, "kid, you got a long way to go" |
|
So I went through canyons, caves, and catacombs, I sailed on bicycle boats |
|
I slept in chapels, and brothels, I met the nicest folks |
|
I said, "i'm ready, for what I'm about to see, yepp" |
|
I heard grandpa on my transistor radio |
|
He said, "kid, it's time for me to go, |
|
And I know that there was something that I wanted to show you, |
|
But it's time for you to find it on your own" |
|
Let me tell you about rage, when the signal died that day |
|
There's nothing out there, and I don't care, if they take my life away |
|
I'm not ready, and I don't want to see, nope |
|
It's been years since I've heard my transistor radio |
|
Yet I keep going to where it seems I'm meant to go |
|
And I finally realized what he wanted to show me |
|
Where I've been, and where I am, it's the show |
|
Where I've been, and where I am, it's the show |
|
Where I've been, and where I am, it's the show |
