Fast Times in Tahoe Lyrics
(First verse)
They say that absense makes the heart grow fonder
but i doubt it. i really doubt it
playing ping pong over oceans, messing with emotions
messing with my head
messing with my head
(second verse)
13 hours ago. Im no longer at home
fast times in Tahoe
three thousand miles away
what can i say
fast times fast times to fast for me
(Pre chorus thingy)
and i dont care what you say
to get me out of the way
i got to get my message through to you
baby baby baby baby baby baby baby
(First verse again...but higher and with feeling)
They say that absense makes the heart grow fonder
but i doubt it. i really doubt it
playing ping pong over oceans, messing with emotions
messing with my head
(Pre chorus thingy...also higher)
and i dont care what you say
to get me out of the way
i got to get my message through to you
baby baby baby baby baby baby baby
(Anthemic chorus)
Fast times in Tahoe
playing in the snow
who oh oh oh
Fast times in Tahoe
Playing in the snow
who oh oh oh
(Screaming guitar solo)
(First verse again but with the ocasional word dropped)
They say. makes the. grow. But i. i really. playing. over
messing with
messing with
(chorus 4 times)
Fast times in tahoe
Playing in the snow
who oh oh oh
They say that absense makes the heart grow fonder
but i doubt it. i really doubt it
playing ping pong over oceans, messing with emotions
messing with my head
messing with my head

Lake Tahoe is an area in the states between California and Nevada, probably about 13 hours total by plane from Auckland NZ. It's also known for having ski parks and snow. Playing ping pong over oceans probably refers to going back and forth between the areas however not sure of the relevance of Tahoe to the band. Also Tahoe is 6,666 miles away from Auckland so might have just sounded better saying 3,000
This song is fuckin awesome. NZ represent! Kiwi music is pure class, this is a really amazing song. Listen to this song, people who aren't from New Zealand. See what you're missing out on! Great to sing in a big group when you're pissed at a party!
Yeaa I love this song...and everyone knows the words. Really quite screwed up lyrics tho, doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense to me
Ahh... memories... I went on a Contiki tour in NZ in 2003 - this was our tour "theme song" that we did to death on the bus, and i had to buy the album in christchurch airport as i was leaving the country! Brings back memories of sushi and wasabi on lake taupo, bungy jumping off the kawarau bridge, and all the other freaking crazy stuff you can do in NZ! You kiwis really have a great country! :)
