Put Down The Drum


I talked and he put down his drum
We talked about the new album
I tried to hide that I'd been staring
All while the lights were glaring

I was admiring from afar
From the back of a dingy bar
I talked and he put down his drum
We talked about the new album

After the show I walked by
Thought to but didn't give the eye
I talked and he put down his drum
We talked about the new album

God I want to so badly
Inspire one verse madly
I talked and he put down his drum
We talked about the new album

Get on the train home
Up the stairs alone
I talked and he put down his drum
We talked about the new album

Florida Static

Florida static and I'm on the highway
Maybe I'll see you broken down on the side
I'll stop to help with your emergency
And ask if you want to take a ride

I just want to be of use
I'll withstand all sorts of abuse
Just give me a task
And I'll never ask
Exactly what you have in mind

I've had it with this Florida static
Something should come in clear
Can't waste any more time
Why won't you meet me when I'm here?


I just want to be of use
I'll withstand all sorts of abuse
Just give me a task
And I'll never ask
Exactly what you have in mind

In my head this state is orange
And not because of the fruit
Harmless light and skinny trees
Non-commital, won't wear a suit

I just want to be of use
I'll withstand all sorts of abuse
Just give me a task
And I'll never ask
Exactly what you have in mind
