Lyrics
Well, the mercury's rising in town
And I'm gonna keep driving around
Cause the faster I go, then the more I can slow things down
See, I don't even know where I stand
Cause I blew all the final exams
And it's not like I'm following through on a well-laid plan
Go home little sister, don't be paranoid
We're not suicidal, we're just toying with the void
All this endless summer, young and unemployed
Is it any wonder, we're out toying with the void?
The Void ...........
I was out on my own for a while
With an apron, a badge, and a smile
But I happened to part with Economy-Mart on style
Now I'm back on the couch in the den
With the parents, the dogs, and the friends
And I know what it's like to be spiraling down again
Go home, little sister, don't be paranoid
Nothing's gonna happen, we're just toying with the void
All this aggravation, eveyone's annoyed
Have a nice vacation, we'll be toying with the void, The Void .....
(I know what you saw, down at the mall
Don't let it prey on your mind
I'm in control, don't tell a soul
Everything's gonna be fine)
Well the mercuy's rising in town
And I'm gonna keep driving around
And you might want to check out the news when it all goes down ...
Go home little sister, don't be paranoid
Johnny's only joking, we're just toying with the void, The Void ......
