Album: The Getaway (2016)
Play Video
  • Listen to the Beatles and the sound of laughing Ed McMahon, we got high
    Educated by a world so full of self and lost in space, too much pride
    Cosmonauts and dirty thoughts are juggling the juggernaut, Soviet Spy
    Every now and then when I remember to befriend the little things in life

    Hey you're fine
    I wanna listen to the radio
    Driving down Calexico highway
    And now I know the signs for sure

    Hold my hand
    I want to share it all with Mary
    Results are gonna vary now

    Later on I'll read to you the things that I've been needing to say goodbye
    Walk away from mom and dad to find the love you never had, tell no lies
    Carry on and write a song that says it all and shows it off 'fore you die
    Take a little breath before you catch an early death, there is so much sky

    Hey you're fine
    I wanna listen to the radio
    Driving down Calexico highway
    And now I know the signs for sure

    Hold my hand
    I want to share it all with Mary
    Results are gonna vary now

    Skinny brains and little stains upon your face, teenage remains, tell me more
    Lifted in the fifties when you really rather drifted through time, let's soar

    Hey you're fine
    I wanna listen to the radio
    Driving down Calexico highway
    And now I know the signs, for sure

    Hold my hand
    I want to share it all with Mary
    Results are gonna vary now Writer/s: ADAM KLINGHOFFER, ANTHONY KIEDIS, CHAD SMITH, MICHAEL BALZARY
