I can see us wired in summertime Laughing, riding our bikes, committing the same crimes Not a lot to say just a few boys on their way To manhood or some other such play I can see us dreaming under red skies as we snuck around Meeting while the sprinklers sprayed, the police chased us around town Drinking that cheap box wine and a ripped-off case of Coors And the girls' eyes shone in the promise of a new night The promise of a new night But something must have been not quite right with you We're all a little crazy but we keep it inside And I was just about to show you a door But I guess you won't be needing that anymore I can pluck the taught strings of adolescence
I can feel our laces break as we jump over that great fence Pot smoking, university-laden The mind can only hold so many things The mind can only hold so many things When you climbed those wires So high In a dive of honesty Did you think to ask me? Something must have been not quite right with you We're all a little crazy but we keep it to ourselves And I was just about to shut that front door And keep it to myself just once more So I sit alone, at my desk working Drive home in traffic, kiss my wife goodnight No one asks, no one inquires, If it was really me who pushed you from those wires Was it really me who pushed you from those wires?
