I use to get stoned on my sisters record collection 
Gold and platinum on vinyl was the closest thing to perfection 
Rock & roll, acoustic guitar 
Not even comfortable with who you are 
I'd blow the roof if I had a fast car 

I changed my mind in my best friends El Camino 
He blew my drums that summer night in El Reno 
Turning up the STP, turning down the LSD 
On a bottle of booze and the best of his cousins weed 

What if I was the one that you warned me about 
You were the one that needs to come around 
We got together and we worked it out 
No one would shut us down. 
If it all dried up and blew away 
With a handful of checks on a rainy day 
Would you turn around or would you stay 
Would it matter anyway 

What if I decided to take the nation 
I'd break the knob just so I could feel the frustration 
Yeah, turn it up til you hit top speed 
Yeah, its all that I'll ever need 
When you bear your heart 
You better be prepared to bleed
