The Pen Lyrics by Telethon

Suburban Electric

0

[Verse 1]
\nI'd known my neighbor Greg for years
\nWe'd talk about the Rangers and have a few beers
\nHe liked my garage, I liked his garage
\nBut Greg didn't sleep much, I could see
\nSo eventually, I intervened and he said, "Listen carefully
\nYou see, I built this new contraption
\nLets you punch in any date you want to go to
\nAnd the room goes white, and you're there."
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\n"Well, Greg, sweet friend, on August 8th, 2010
\nI lost a jet blue ballpoint pen
\nI loved much more than all of my other pens
\nI feel like this could be my opening."
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nNow, Greg shot straight; he never lied to me
\nThe room went white, and suddenly
\nThe TV showed a commercial for Couples Retreat
\nComing soon to DVD
\nI crawl outside and sniff around
\nThe block to find my jet blue ballpoint pen
\nWhich, I guess, erased my wife and my kid
\n
\n[Verse 4]
\nLive from the Everglades, I tend to an airboat
\nPerform all its maintenance
\nIt's no Zihuatanejo, but I can't complain
\nThough often I do
\nYes, I do
\nThe humidity gets to me, get lonely when I drink
\nAnd that pen's out of ink
\n
\n[Outro]
\nAnd Greg, if you're out there, come find me
\nI have an idea
\nI think\n\n
