lyrics

KATY
I met Katy 5 years ago.
At a shitty"Battle of the bands" show.
Tonight we work on phantom street,
Same old story, same old beat

I play covers, she's the waitress
Makin’ ends meet before we get famous
But there's no one here to drink or dance
So I sit at the bar and talk to my friend/ (talk to a friend)

She's telling me how she feels stuck
Her whole career's shit out of luck
She don't know what the hell to do
To make that good old dream come true

Oh Katy, what a pity
Why don’t we pack our bags and run
Let's turn off the blame game
Jump on the next train
Stop debating pros and cons

Oh Katy what a pity
Why don’t we pack our bags and run
Let's move to LA
London or Broadway
Before the rest of our time is done

She's got the voice she's got the style
She plays guitar like fuckin’ Zakk Wyld
But ambitions can't be fulfilled
When you live where all dreams are killed.

And so she grieves, just like I do
Cause god damn! I live there too.
Let's drink to all the legendary bands
We’ll never hear outside this land

Oh Katy, what a pity
Why don’t we pack our bags and run
Let's turn off the blame game
Jump on the next train
Stop debating pros and cons

Oh Katy what a pity
Why don’t we pack our bags and run
Let's move to LA
London or Broadway
Before the rest of our time is done

You know it's up to you and me
It's in our hands why can't we see
We just to have to jump off that cliff
To make a hit out of this riff
Let's run like hell, close our eyes
And hope we’ll (or we will) fly

Solo

Oh Katy, what a pity
Why don’t we pack our bags and run
Let's turn off the blame game
Jump on the next train
Stop debating pros and cons


Oh Katy what a pity
What are we waiting to be gone
Let's move to LA
London or Broadway
Before the rest of our time is done

I'm going back home to my wife and child
Cause this is where happiness lies
Gave her a peace sign, she gave me a smile
Now we' ll both go on with our lives

No seduction, wasn't a date
The conversation was just great
Felt good to dream but now it's late
I had a beer with my friend Kate
I had a beer with my good friend Kate.
