lyrics

His father warned him way back then
Not to run around with these Hammond friends
He soon learned why when he left with them
In a herd from Hump down Michigan

Before the Renaissance, they ended dead
At the intersection of a new Hohman
Eager to sneak into the junk yard when
A shot was fired beside the pigpen
And with the thrust of a syringe
Ran to where Michigan becomes 5th

Yeah, that sounds about right
Those HMD boys looking for a ride
Wound up bored high on the swine
So father took you to the east side

I have to tell you I’m finely surprised
To hear you touch on Columbian pride
I looked up to your days at one time
But have recently been more inclined
To reverse my round trip
To where Michigan becomes 5th

My big orange truck ain’t discreet
But the kids still strolled the street
And older brother gave a wicked peek
Suppose that ain’t the worse you’ve seen

We live in a shaded dream
Where we get dragged back screen
Just to see we’ve lost control of the damned thing
When we all just wanted to leave
The constricting squeeze of the syringe
Into where Michigan becomes 5th
It’s a sling shot of a drift
Where Michigan becomes 5th
