Hockey

See an old car on the flatbed
Think of all the months it’s been
Now it’s pushed into a tin can
That’s the way it’s always been
See the people on the outside
Think of all they could’ve been
Now they put up with their day jobs
Put up with it to you
Cause they’re worrying about taxes
Paying off credit cards
Living in their boxes
That’s the way it’s always been
And you admire ingenuity
But you couldn’t handle the instability
But I see you knock them all down
One more back down
See the old band on the down slide
Think of all the months they’ve been
Now they’re pushed into a small van
That’s the way it’s always been
When it holds together like a compound fracture
I look and see why you couldn’t follow me
But I see you knocked them all down
Why don’t back down
