Going Once
Going once Going twice Sold to the girl who ignored all the good advice Of all the people who knew better She just stood there On the front porch Waiting for her (will) to come and get her She was packed She had a suitcase Full of noble intentions She had a (map) And a staight face Hell bent on reinvention And she was ready for a long day She was in it for it (only) And they said "you think that you don't need us But you're not going to get far All your big ideas are suckers None of them work None of them have cars" But she was not deterred It was like she hadn't heard a word And just then a primer grey el camino Pulled up to the curb Going once Letras de cancionesGoing twice Down the road less taken Through the coffee And the wd40 And the gasoline And the beer There was always someone there to say Why don't you just stay And hang your hat Here But she was packed She had a suitcase Full of fumbles and near misses She was swinging through a jungle of last calls and first kisses And she was learning about please About hugh/cute? humilities And then one day she looked around her And everything up till then was showing And she wondered how did I get here Without even knowing where I was going And now there's no getting out of this And there's no going back And it all seems so odd sometimes And the odds all seemed stacked Going once Going twice Sold to the girl Who ignored all the (good) advice Of all the people who knew better(for better or for worse) Of all the people who knew worse Yeah her will was her chaufFer Yeah her will was her curse She was packed She had a suitcase She had a map And a straight face She was ready for the lonely She was in it forever She was in it forever She was in it She was in it ...........
