lyrics

Lyrics:
You and I, we set the plan in motion
Or maybe just me and you didn't want to make waves
We framed our first dollar and hung it on the wall
And imagined smooth sailing for the rest of our days

But man plans and God laughs and laughs
And takes that veil and rips it in half

Nobody fixes things anymore
They buy replacements at the store
So turn out the lights and lock the door
'Cause we don't work in Belford anymore

You brought me dinner and the kids stayed in the car
Another bunch of weekend plans on hold
You said "They hardly even know who you are"
I was thinking of the last TV I sold

The mortgage is due, the work must be done
The bank don't care where the money comes from

Nobody fixes things anymore
They buy replacements at the store
So turn out the lights and lock the door
'Cause we don't drive through Belford anymore

And now they're saying the tax is going higher
Inflation's taking every last nickel and dime
And I know you need me, I know you care
I know you want a little piece of my time
I only wish you understood
I TRIED TO DO THE BEST I COULD...

I couldn't tell my hope from my need and
A dream's just another addiction to be freed from

I didn't want you to think less of me
I'm not the hero you wanted me to be

So turn out the lights and lock the door
'Cause we don't drive through Belford anymore

Asking me to choose just one song on this album as my favorite track is so unfair. But life is unfair. So I chose one at random. That said, if rock 'n' roll is your life, get The Peppermint Kicks. Your life will improve! Rob Moss
