Strip Mall Parking Lots** Songtext / Lyric

Smoking cigarettes in a strip mall parking lot.

There's nothing much to do around here but hang out.

Isn't that just like everywhere else?

There's a war veteran standing by the interstate on-ramp.

Yeah, he's asking for a ride, he's hoping for a kickdown

Anything you can spare to get, helps!



And as the Southwest-Florida sun sets.

The sky is painted hughes of pink and orange!

Our directions are calling

Life is waiting to be ruined!






City cops come down and they bust up the party.

We go to a diner, we drink bitter black coffee

Gas station billboard reads three-forty-nine a gallon!

You are coming down from the high

Was starting to sober up

Boys crushing on girls crushing on girls

Into the Southwest-Florida morning



We are still young!



And as the Southwest-Florida sun sets.

The sky is painted hughes of pink and orange!

Our directions are calling

Life is waiting to be ruined!



Life is waiting to be ruined!!!
