The Song
Tomas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let's just see how crazy things can go
It's not the plan
Out of gas, the engine's shot
Looks like I'm in another crappy spot
It's where I am
And I'm the one whose always got a problem you can mend
Bakersfield is years ago
Off the edge to LA is where we fell
And time will tell if we know each other well
Off to Vegas! Off we go!
Are we up or are we on the low
We'll never know
Rent is paid so money's tight
But, we'll be on the Vegas strip tonight
Just go with the flow
It's times like this we understand our friendship is to blame
And, Carol, i just realized we're much too much the same
Bakersfield is years ago
Off the edge to LA is where we fell
And time will tell if we know each other well
Sometimes it'll rain a storm
And the clouds won't let me be
But, sunny days are just ahead
You see? That's the way it's got to be instead
Bakersfield is years ago
Off the edge to LA is where we fell
And time will tell if we know each other well
Lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah, pa da dat da de dah, hey
Administer administrate
It's Thursday night they've got you staying late
It's what you do
Meanwhile I have yet to know
If I'll sing or do another show
It's pay as you go
I've never had a friend like you so willing to be there
And, Carol, I might not always show it but you've got to know I care
Got to know we care
You've got to know I care
Bakersfield is years ago
Off the edge to LA is where we fell
And time will tell if we know each other well
Lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah, pa da dat da de dah, hey
Lat in dah, da pah dah tah, lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah
Pa da dat da de dah, hey
Sometimes it'll rain a storm and the clouds won't let me be
But, sunny days are just ahead, you see?
That's the way its got to be instead
That's the way its got to be instead
Bakersfield is years ago
Off the edge to LA is where we fell
And time will tell if we know each other well
Lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah, pa da dat da de dah, hey
Lat in dah, da pah dah tah, lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah
Pa da dat da de dah, hey
Lat in dah, da pah dah tah, lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah
Pa da dat da de dah, hey
Lat in dah, da pah dah tah, lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah
Pa da dat da de dah, hey

Adventuretime - it starts with me
I'm ready to have some fun and see where life takes me
Let's just see how crazy things can go
I'm open to anything and ready for an adventure
It's not the plan
Life doesn't always go according to plan
Out of gas, the engine's shot
I'm stuck in a bad situation with no way out
Looks like I'm in another crappy spot
Things aren't going well for me
It's where I am
I have to deal with reality and make the best of it
But you're the one who always asks if you can lend a hand
You're always there for me when I need help
And I'm the one whose always got a problem you can mend
I seem to always have problems that you can help me with
Bakersfield is years ago
The past is in the past and we can't go back
Off the edge to LA is where we fell
We took a risk and it didn't work out as planned
And time will tell if we know each other well
Only time will reveal the depth of our relationship
Off to Vegas! Off we go!
We're heading to Vegas for a new adventure
Are we up or are we on the low
We don't know what to expect in Vegas
We'll never know
Life is unpredictable and we can't control everything
Rent is paid so money's tight
We're on a budget but we're making it work
But, we'll be on the Vegas strip tonight
We're going to have a good time despite our financial constraints
Just go with the flow
Don't stress about the details, just enjoy the moment
It's times like this we understand our friendship is to blame
We realize that our friendship may be the reason why we get into these crazy situations
And, Carol, i just realized we're much too much the same
I see that we have a lot in common and that's why we get along so well
Sometimes it'll rain a storm
Bad things happen and we can't always control them
And the clouds won't let me be
Bad events can linger and affect us emotionally
But, sunny days are just ahead
Things will get better eventually
You see? That's the way it's got to be instead
We have to stay positive and look for the good in life
Administer administrate
We all have things we have to do, even if we don't enjoy them
It's Thursday night they've got you staying late
Work can be difficult and demanding
Meanwhile I have yet to know
I don't know what the future holds for me
If I'll sing or do another show
I have to figure out what I want to do with my life
It's pay as you go
I have to make my own way in life
I've never had a friend like you so willing to be there
You're an amazing friend who is always there for me
And, Carol, I might not always show it but you've got to know I care
I might not say it often but I really value our friendship
Got to know we care
It's important for us to show each other that we care
Lat in dah, pa da dat da dat in dah, dat in dah, pa da dat da de dah, hey
