Optimist Vs. The Silent Alarm (When the Saints Go Marching In)

We're skeletons of cigarettes
& Empty cans & bottles
& We tear out of the parking lot
The engine at full throttle.
& We met a route with all right turns
So lights won't get us caught
We got a mess of cash in duffel bags
& Every penny's hot
Well hallelujah well hallelujah

Oh & we're laughing through the fear
That we'll never make the clear
Oh & you've never looked so dear
It's the end of our career

We'll ditch the car in Wisconsin
& Hide out in the trees
& I know a dude in Madison
Who owes some favours to me
With the money in the back seat baby
We could buy a house
& Raise a little family on Schlitz
& Mickey Mouse
Well hallelujah well hallelujah

Oh & we're laughing through the fear
That we'll never make the clear
Oh & you've never looked so dear
It's the end of our career
