Story Behind The Song
Had this title and thought it sounded fun so, I wrote the song around it. The lyrics are alittle vague to make it apply to relationships of any kind. It has youthful energy that makes him positive and hopeful for the future. FUN!

Lyrics
Spent all my tokens on a broken machine
It didn?t take too long to get my pockets cleaned
It may appear to be the end of my game
But, I see opportunity shining at me
I get advice so filled with I told you so
Hey old man just stick that finger up your nose
Nothing keeps me off my feet for very long
All I know of failure is, it loves company
(bridge)
You just watch me make my footprints
Leaving my impression everywhere
There is more to life than this little town
I?m gonna lick it up and turn it upside down
Spent all my tokens on a broken machine
I see opportunity just shining at me
(bridge)
All my tokens on a broke machine
