lyrics

Extend your arms and pretend they're wings, and dream the same dream you did when you were a kid. Just bend your knees and fall. Four sheets to the wind by my demand, and a briefcase full of $20s. Put the bourbon on my bill, 'cause you're never gonna catch me. Coop up and wait for the snoop's exclaim. Then play the same game you did when you were a kid. That's how you'll dupe them all. You plan to fail when you fail to plan; I'll take that to the grave with me. The fake McCoy got shot and killed, but you're never gonna top me. No, you'll never understand if you think it's about the money. I only did it for the thrill and you're never gonna find me.

Speed Governor recommends:

BIG
by Wrong Body

Wrong Body are good friends of ours from Boston who have unleashed this monster of an album. For fans of Shudder To Think, Smart Went Crazy, winding guitars and clever hooks. Speed Governor
go to album
Make Muscles
by Lizard Police

Tulsa's Lizard Police make the kind of high-energy, riff-driven punk rock that make us wish we weren't too old for this shit. Speed Governor
go to album
Exanimate
by Geronimo!

Some of Chicago's best dudes also happen to be one of Chicago's best bands. They take the weirdest things about all your favorite bands and amalgamate them into something captivating. Great stuff. Speed Governor
