Buckle up.

lyrics

You're sleeping on the floor of your practice space in Allston
Miles to burn with boys and girls who run your credit down
You're headed for New York, but you never could shake Boston
'Cause everyone you learned to love was right here in this town

You're named after a park that sits along the Charles
You've never known bad luck, he wants to take you out
And so you break in after dark and sneak along the cars
Try not to wake the cops, and you can swim until you drown

It's probably dumb to waste your luck on someone you just met last month
But no one seems to mind that much when I can't get you to shut up
So won't you please don't wear me out
Please take care of yourself
Please don't kill me in your car

'Cause you're driving way too far with the "check engine" light on
You play the bands you've sucked, well I just think that's hot
And now you're drinking in your car, going live and jerking off
I know you want to make it out, but it seems like way too much

It's probably dumb to waste your luck on someone you just met last month
But no one seems to mind that much when I can't get you to shut up
So won't you please don't wear me out
Please take care of yourself
Please don't kill me in your car

You got tired of the bars, getting head in bathroom stalls
So you shacked up, packed the car, and got a dog

It's probably dumb to waste your luck on someone you just met last month
But no one seems to mind that much when I can't get you to shut up
And I don't want to see you fall
But I can't take your calls
I just want to hear your songs
So won't you please don't wear me out
Please take care of yourself
Please don't kill me in your car
