Wound up drunk again on Robson Street
That's strange, 'cause we always agree
At the start of every evening
That's the last place we'd wanna be.
Coffee drinkers, dressed in black with no sugar
They don't give me no respect.
They say "Look, here comes another one."
I don't know what they mean yet.
I say
Keep it light enough to travel
Keep it light enough to travel
Don't let it all unravel
Keep it light enough to travel.
Promise me we won't go into that nightclub
I feel so screwed up when I'm in there
Can't tell the bouncers from the customers
I dunno which ones I prefer
Promise me we won't go into that nightclub
I really think that it's obscene.
What kind of people go to meet people
Somewhere they can't be heard or seen?
I say
Keep it light enough to travel
Smashed the window at the logging company
Just to get a little release
Had to throw down my accordion
To get away from the police.
Keep it light enough to travel
