lyrics

I need a vacation from my head
And I'll buy a ticket just for one
I'm off to build a time machine
Out of steel and a flux capacitor
Could you help me Dr. Brown?

Because I'm playing out loud for this crowd
When the lights kick off and the band is ready to play, OK
Here's a song so say all the words and clap to the beat
Sing along and stop taking things so seriously

When you talk my mind goes "do do do do do do do do do"
Over every word that you say
I had a crazy strange little thought that if I were a robot made of lead
I would set my looks to stun

Because I'm playing out loud for this crowd
When the lights kick off and the band is ready to play, OK
Here's a song so say all the words and clap to the beat
Sing along and stop taking things so seriously

Help me out if you find the time
Marty we can fly and we don't need no roads
I am in another messed up situation
I keep laughing at myself in twelve dimensions
How do I keep living it up?

Because I'm playing out loud for this crowd
When the lights kick off and the band is ready to play, OK
Here's a song so say all the words and clap to the beat
Sing along and stop taking things so seriously
