Elevator Boots - Counting Crows

Bobby was a kid from 'round the town

Kicks pumped up and head held down

Underwater more than he was up

He dreamed submarines and bottle green

Imaginary flight machines

But in blue jean flairs he’d bubble like a 7-up

Everybody wants to know you when you’re the only one to know

Shoot it 'til you feel alive and play one more show

Look into the buzz and shake it 'til it turns around

You can’t stop feeling

The boss-man suits and the elevator boots astound

And you can’t help healing

And they want you and you want to

With your lips on fire and your head unscrewed

But it’s time to whip another chain and hit one more town

Bobby doesn’t know her name

He holds on tightly just the same

Sometimes one more night is all you need

I met Alice near the Alamo one summer in San Antonio

I remember her, I don’t remember me

Everybody wants to know you when you’re the only one to know

And man anything to feel alive and play one more show

Look into the buzz and shake it 'til it turns around

You can’t stop feeling

The boss-man suits and the elevator boots astound

And you can’t help healing

And they want you and you want to

With the hips on fire and your head unglued

'Til it’s time to whip another chain and hit one more town

Alice knows the secret

And she could tell you now

If you want to

Because they want you

Do you want to

Sneak and sparkle pen glide

And it’s hard to feel

And I can’t get high

And I don’t always understand how to survive

Man kids get sick of being bottled up

And it drags you down 'til you throw it up

Gotta get outta the house take a ride on the radio dial

And everybody wants to know you when you’re the only one to know

Yeah everything that feels alive is in one more show

Look into the buzz and shake it 'til it turns around

You can’t stop feeling

The boss-man suits and the elevator boots astound

And you can’t help healing

And they want you and you want to

If the kid’s so clean with his soul shampooed

And it’s time to whip another chain and hit one more town

Oh yeah it’s time to whip another chain and hit one more town

Hey man it’s time to whip another chain and hit one more town
