Counting Crows
Elevator Boots
[Verse 1]
Bobby was a kid from round the town
Kicks pumped up and head held down
Underwater more than he was up
He dreamed submarines in bottle green
Imaginary flight machines
But in blue jean flares he bubbled like a Seven Up
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody wants to know you
When you're the only one to know
Shoot until you feel alive and play one more show
[Chorus]
Plug into the buzz and shake it 'til it turns around
And you can't stop feeling
The Paul Smith suits and the elevator boots astound
And you can't help healing
They want you and you want to
With their lips on fire and your head unscrеwed
But it's time to whip another changе and hit one more town
[Verse 2]
Bobby doesn't know her name
He holds on tightly just the same
Sometimes one more night is all you need
I met Alice near the Alamo
One summer in San Antonio
I remember her, I don't remember me
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody wants to know you
When you're the only one to know
Man, anything to feel alive and play one more show
[Chorus]
Plug into the buzz and shake it 'til it turns around
And you can't stop feeling
The Paul Smith suits and the elevator boots astound
And you can't help healing
They want you and you want to
With their hips on fire and your head unglued
'Til it's time to whip another change and hit one more town
[Bridge]
Alice knows the secret
And she could tell you now
If you want to
'Cause they want you
Do you want to?
[Verse 3]
I snake and sparkle, pant and glide
But it's hard to feel and I can't get high
And I don't always understand how to smile
Man, kids get sick of bein' bottled up
It drags you down until you throw it up
Gotta get out of the house, and take a ride on the radio dial
[Pre-Chorus]
And everybody wants to know you
When you're the only one to know
Everything that feels alive is in one more show
[Chorus]
Plug into the buzz and shake it 'til it turns around
And you can't stop feeling
The Paul Smith suits and the elevator boots astound
And you can't help healing
They want you and you want to
With their kiss so clean, with their soul shampooed
And it's time to whip another change and hit one more town
[Outro]
Oh yeah, it's time to whip another change and hit one more town
Hey, man, it's time to whip another change and hit one more town
