Impressions from a soul lost in trackless suburbia.

lyrics

Sixty thousand cars see this sign every day
A cross big enough to scare Jesus away
Nothing but trucks in the used car lot
Another reminder of what I ain't got

Changed the letters on my truck to DORF
Seasonal ducks dressed up on the porch
Don't buy your gas on a Tuesday morning
Or run your band saw when I am snoring

I'm movin' east
One county to the right
I'll do the once over
Skip out in the middle of the night
I'm movin' east
One county to the right
Bought a house and never bothered
To see it in the daylight

Got my garage sale list, two rolls of quarters
Move dirt today got my marching orders
Take the kids to the smaller of two malls
Can't see a thing for these retaining walls

Sixty thousand cars see this sign every day
A cross big enough to scare Jesus away
Nothing but trucks in the used car lot
Another reminder of what I ain't got

I'm movin' east
One county to the right
I'll do the once over
Skip out in the middle of the night
I'm movin' east
One county to the right
Bought a house and never bothered
To see it in the daylight

The Kevins Arvada, Colorado

The Kevins (Denver, CO) have been conjuring up home-made rock music since 1998: original songs by K.

Inspired by Neil Young, John Fogerty, Paul Westerberg, Ian Hunter and many more, The Kevins' continuing quest is to create the perfect single - or at least some cool b-sides. ... more
