One day, they said the future
Was flying cars and a ride on a rocket
Time passed, and all I got was
America Today and a TV in my pocket

Thank setting the place on fire
Some days I could feel the spark
Like the one who they all desire
I'm hiding out till the town goes dark

Tough talkers and lip readers
Friends of friends are who they see
I can't rest thinking about them
It kind of makes me want to sleep through my dreams

Thank setting the place on fire
Some days I could feel the spark
Like the one who they all desire
I'm hiding out till the town goes dark

I lay low; I ride high
Somewhere between I'll probably die
I get the joke every time
I always laugh though I know how to cry

Thank setting the place on fire
Some days I could feel the spark
Like the one who they all desire
I'm hiding out till the town goes dark
