Elevator Up Lyrics

Slim and tall behind me
Spinnin' me off of my feet
Headin' for the D
We're taking our act to the street
Roll around the city
Leavin' our tracks on the ground
Elevator up
Baby, I don't wanna come down

Hangin' with the sinners
The undesirable crowd
Tokin' on the train
Playin' our radio loud
Got a sweet need for speed that doesn't know no bounds
Elevator up
Baby, I don't wanna come down

Spent a little time in the back of my mind
Now it may be time to pay up and go
I've done it
I've had it
I'm ready for bed
Anywhere at all
Any way the wind blows

Say hello to Molly
She's got a sister as well
Such a pleasant girl
As far as your family can tell
Hold the camera steady
Turn the shutter speed way down
Elevator up
Baby, I don't wanna come down

Spent a little time in the back of my mind
Now it may be time to pay up and go
I've done it
I've had it
I'm ready for bed
Anywhere at all
Any way the wind blows

Spent a little time in the back of my mind
Now it may be time to pay up and go
I've done it
I've had it
I'm ready for bed
Anywhere at all
Any way the wind blows
(Any way the wind blows)
Any way the wind blows
(Any way the wind blows)
Any way the wind blows
(Any way the wind blows)
Any way the wind blows
(Any way the wind blows)

No comments? I guess I shouldn't be shocked; Colin says it's about drugs right in the liner notes.

Am I the only one who hears Jody channelling the Edge here?

...Colin? What the hell is wrong with me. CHRIS.

It's a clear parody of Oasis. From the rambling guitars, to the nasally vocals, and the "any way the wind blows" bit. Very clever.
