Mrs. Carver says she's sorry

The price of forward thinking

You stay up all night half the time

Racking your mind

Alone at night

While all the neighbors sleep tight

Verse 2

Years ago she lost her daughter

Cause beer is so suburban

And declasse for what it's worth

She drinks it down down down

For all of the old old days

It's nice to get away

She'll never safely know when

An asteroid will kill us all

For all of the old old days

It's nice to get away
