Route 66 (Fear and Loathing) Lyrics by Blue Jay Walker

2024

[Verse 1]
I'll be
Wasting my time at the laundromat in Barstow
Trying to steal a suit and only finding knickerbockers
Losing my mind in the alley by the army barracks
Trying to salute and never getting it right
[Chorus]
Route 66 has a noose around its neck
The mother of America, its child is sick in the head
Old elephants wander on their own to die
Old Americans drive big cars in the desert
[Verse 2]
And I’ll be
Digging up bones in the gravel by the box store
Watching all the semi-trucks park a parade
Carrying cargo to nowhere in particular
Waiting for the lizards while they idle in the shade
[Chorus]
Route 66 has a noose around its neck
The mother of America, its child is sick in the head
Old elephants wander on their own to die
Old Americans drive big cars in the desert
[Verse 3]
And I'll be
Munching on cardboard, hiding in the parking lot
Living like a Pitbull, licking up the asphalt
Putting my thumb up, getting it turned down
I'll never make it out this town
[Verse 4]
Laughing with the biker gang run by the old man
He’s seen all the sickness growing
Over that hill I heard there's a better day
He says it's just fear and loathing
[Chorus]
Route 66 has a noose around its neck
The mother of America, its child is sick in the head
Old elephants wander on their own to die
Old Americans drive big cars in the desert
