We Laugh at Danger (And Break All the Rules)

It was a birthday gift of a Mexican Telecaster
 From this day on, I will play along to all my Young Pioneers records
 And there will be a poetry spoken silently between me and the stereo
 I'll work mornings and you can work through the night
 Mary, there is no hope for us
 If this GM van don't make it across the state line, we might as well lay down and die
 Because if Florida takes us, we're taking everyone down with us
 Where we're coming from will be the death of us
 And I cannot help but hold on to a handful of times
 When what was spoken was a revolution in itself
 And what we were doing was the only thing that mattered
 And how good it felt to kill the memory
 Of nights spent holding your shirt for the smell
 I heard you used to cry when you made love to him
 But this band will play on
 'Cause all we can do is what we've always done
 And on and on on and on on and on on and on on and on
 Mary, there is no hope for us
 If this GM van don't make it across the state line, we might as well lay down and die
 Because if Florida takes us, we're taking everyone down with us
 Where we're coming from will be the death of us
