Trying not to fall asleep
Feels a bit uneasy
Because you're getting up to get a drink
Well
I'm only up because you're here
It's not a mistake
You're in the bathroom
And I just can't keep awake
We're watching movies on the couch
We're staying in or going out
Not an answer not a doubt
I like being here a lot
I bother with you because
I don't have a reason not to
I want to give myself a reason to be
I'll always be around just because you're awake
I hope I'm not whiny
I hope I'm not cold
Just to see your face
I punch with the rolls
They don't pay me enough but
How much could I be paid
To waste my time with you
And not hope to be laid
And we're sitting on the backseat
I turn on the defrost and the heat
And we go find something to eat
Just wasting time
I bother with you because
I don't have a reason not to
I want to give myself a reason to be
I'll always be around just because you're awake
It's no fair
To all of you there
With my good luck
It sucks
To be like you
To be tied down
To never ever ever letting go
I bother with you because
I don't have a reason not to
I want to give myself a reason to be
I'll always be around just because you're awake
It’s warmer down in Kankakee
I need to flee
I need to run away
It’s warmer down in Kankakee
They say
And I don’t have a reason to be here anyway
It was so great here last year
But now I just want to disappear
To Kankakee
I’m gonna
Get away
In Kankakee the sun is usually up
Except when you need it down
The air is musty but clear
And the water’s cold when you need it to be
But otherwise tepid and virus-free
In Kankakee
You can drive down the same road
For days if you need
And if you need to get somewhere
Pretty quick, the roadways are all free
And I know that it doesn’t have history
And I don’t know about its geography
Because if I were in Kankakee
I’d be living for right now, for here, for me
Oh, drive, drive, drive
Drive until you’re getting sick
And drive, drive, drive
Drive far away from here
Go south, go south away from here
I wish I was
I wish I was somewhere south of here
It gets nicer when you go outward
