burning bridges

Through the jungle there's a railroad track
But I don't need anything to find my way back
'Cause I can make it if I follow you
You're blazing a trail to your next rendezvous
Honey, your juice box is bubbling with foam
Guess Jesus from Kmart got sick of selling dope
And I'm out here on the edge of someday
While Karen from high school lights up Broadway

Hey-hey
Am I doing enough?
Should I be falling in love?
And working too much?
Hey-hey
I'm burning my bridges
Never learned long division
So what am I missing?

I'm too damn old to be just twenty-one
Repeating the mantra 'I'm still having fun'
And though I'm proud of what you've got up to
I'm a selfish bastard and I don't wanna lose to you, no!

Hey-hey
Everyone's doing enough
Everyone's falling in love
And drinking too much
Hey-hey-ay
While I'm burning my bridges
Never did my revision
Tell me, what am I missing?

Come find me in middle grade novels
And the 2nd verses of songs I used to hate
And yes, you have my full attention
As I enter a distant dimension
Where we sail the seven seas
To a rock and roll symphony
Where the future is bright and so are we

Hey-hey-ay
We're all doing enough
We're all falling in love
Working and drinking too much
Hey-hey-ay
We're burning our bridges
Never asked for permission
To find what we're missing

Hey-hey-ay
I'll build my own bridges
Hey-hey-ay
And I'll find what I'm missing
