Paid Vacation Time

Paid Vacation Time

At The Drive-In
(album: Acrobatic Tenement)

So we saw,
The opportunities.
The stitch and thread,
With no down payments.
Our neighbors see it through their own eyes.
The others hear the story through the grapevine.
Well, dot your "I"´s.
Cross your "T"´s.
This forfeiture´s the burden of another, another.

And all those friends you thought you had,
Are laughing at and not with you.
And all those friends you thought you knew,
You´d trade it all for a tank full of fuel.
Of fuel, yeah.

I´m gonna trade it all...

Bel Air Colonial Deluxe number five.

All the warmth that a boy can give.

With a sheepskin costume,
I´m a truant officer.
