From the recording Flint MI
<p><em>"We used to record all the band practices through Lupo’s old PA onto cassette tapes (remember those?) and I made Lupo give me the cassette. A few days later I drove over to Charleston, SC for the weekend. Brady’s dad had a house there and it was only a four or five hour drive from Atlanta, so sometimes I’d escape to the beach for the weekend if I had the money for gas and beer..."</em></p>

Lyrics
<p>Over your house, Saturday night<br /> You were fighting with your parents<br /> About what time to come home<br /> And I was layin’ low again.<br /> You know I tried to show my intentions were good<br /> And if I thought they were<br /> Didn’t think that you would, anyway<br /> Well it’s hard say<br /> When you’re young and you’re so in love…<br /> <br /> And your mama’s cookin’ dinner now<br /> And your daddy’s in the living room<br /> Reading ‘Guns & Ammo’<br /> And he, doesn’t give a shit what you did at school<br /> Just as long as you got A’s, on your tests<br /> Cause if it’s C’s, you can stay inside<br /> You don’t play, with the kids down the block<br /> Cause the Satan-worship long-hair motherfuckers<br /> Yeah yeah!<br /> Why don’t you go upstairs and do your homework<br /> You’re gonna end up a nothin’ like your uncle D<br /> That long-haired freak better not be coming over<br /> I don’t care if he is your brother!<br /> <br /> I was a kid, Saturday night<br /> Now I’m down at the alley, bowling strikes<br /> On a Wednesday, and the beer flows like water<br /> Let me tell ya<br /> My old woman she could turn some heads<br /> Now sometimes I wish that I was dead<br /> And she was sittin’ home watching TV<br /> And the rugrats are out prowling the streets<br /> I said Ohh!<br /> Sometimes work just gets so old<br /> Wish I could crawl in a hole with a…<br /> Forty of Bud you know that would never run dry!<br /> And my friends tell the same old jokes<br /> And I’ve been smelling the same old smokes<br /> That blow in my face<br /> I ain’t blowin’ nothin’ up noone’s ass,<br /> Just getting by<br /> Yeah yeah!<br /> <br /> Ain’t in funny how time goes by, when you’re livin’ Nah, nah<br /> <br /> Yeah maybe when the kids grow up and move away<br /> Aw that’ll be the day, baby<br /> Gonna do some travelin’<br /> Buy a Winnebago or something<br /> Lookin’ out the window<br /> At Alaska, Puerto Rico, Hawaii<br /> You know you got the TV blaring in the back of the RV, but it’s alright<br /> Oh yeah<br /> And you’ll be old and fat<br /> Yeah I still remember that<br /> Way back when, in that sweet, sweet summer<br /> Nah, nah<br /> <br /> It’s just a livin’ nah nah<br /> It’s just a livin’ hey hey<br /> Ain’t nothin’ you or me can, do to stop it<br /> No, No, No, No, No<br /> <br /> Just keep on givin’<br /> Just keep on slippin’<br /> On and on and on and on, And ON! </p>
