Big Trucks

(álbum: The Only Reason I Feel Secure - 1999)

Dad, Dad why did you let that man
Push you around like that?
You should have beat him down
Down to the ground
Down to the ground for that.
He said "Son, you're still young
And you always jump the gun."

There's real people in the big, big trucks
That you flip off when they get in your way.
You get so hacked that you pay no mind
To the great big sign that says "Oversized Load"
You really think they can go as fast
As you in your 87' Trans Am?
They know you're in a terrible rush,
They're going just as fast
As fast as they can.

Dad, Dad, I really don't understand
What driving big trucks has to do with that man
You should have taught him a lesson
About being rude.
About talking to you with such an attitude.
"Son, you're still young
And you always jump the gun."

There's real people in the big, big trucks
That you flip off when they get in your way
You get so hacked that you pay no mind
To the great big sign that says "Oversized Load"
You really think they can go as fast
As you in your 87' Trans Am?
They know you're in such a terrible rush
They're going just as fast,
As fast as they can.
