40 Bucks - Demo

40 bucks and her favorite band
She stayed out too late again
The band's back in Birmingham
She didn't go to work again

She's always been a pretty big fan
Certain songs get scratched right in
When morning comes round again
The sadness crashes down and she said

When he first came unto me, it sounded kinda like a symphony
They were hearts and horns and winds and warm and wet
This morning when the band left town, it bummed me out like a birthday clown
Some many drinks and sticks in the sleight of hand
40 bucks and her favorite band

When mother in '70s
Leather vests and the Dungarees
Her bio-dad played bass guitar
In a five-piece out of Wichita

They had a little local hit
You can find it on the internet
They made her on the night they met
In a motel made of cigarettes

She's never even met the dude
But she heard the song and it was pretty cool
It was sad, slow waltz about a pure and simple love

There are days when she gets fatigued
She's pretty old for this music scene
And our dreams sing-a-long to the music of our youth
40 bucks and her favorite groups

She doesn't really do it much
But she could probably get some party stuff
Say, she doesn't really do it much
She could probably get some party stuff

She doesn't really do it much, she could probably get some party stuff
She barely even knows the guy, but she's pretty sure stoppin' by
And when he calls her back, she says, "that she will cover it"
She says, "I know you don't make much money yet, I know it mostly goes to cigarettes"

And I'll let us, conquest wasn't all that famous yet
He took 20 from her warlock when she left
And then he left
