Brat Pack - The Rocket Summer

For about four years I’ve hated this town

Yeah, so much I just wanna get out

Since graduation was long ago

Please somebody get me out of this hole

Cause I don’t want to get stuck in here

When I am thirty-four just talkin' 'bout high school years

No I don’t wanna be there, and feel so stuck right here

Back and forth, side to side, oh my dear

My foot to the floor I will drive to the place

Where I can kick it with friends through the night

A place we’ll talk about now and the past what the future holds

Hanging out with not much to do

Just aimless with each other — is what we do

Cause this ain’t where it’s at

My friends will second that

And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad

But it’s like were our own brat pack

We’re always kickin' back nobody can take that

And that is that it’s like its all we have

Whoa!

Whoa!

Yeah, oh

Come on say «Oh!

Oh!

Get on the floor!

Dance 'till you got no more!»

I know its there somewhere

Don’t worry I’ll be there to rock the party all night

To rock it 'til there’s light our fists in the air

Fightin' the good fight

Cause' we were singing along to Peter Gabriel’s «Sledgehammer» song

You know it’s clear that tonight we belong in this place

So I step back to reflect in this town I hate

And at least just for a second I think I might stay

This ain’t where it’s at

My friends will second that

And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad

But it’s like were our own brat pack

We’re always kickin' back nobody can take that

And that is that

So I’ll run away to the hopes that I have

But still I fall asleep in the arms of my past

And when I wake so helpless and thinking of that

I just lay back down

Again, everyday

So maybe later today I’ll know

What I will do with my life as I know it

Maybe for now I’ll drive back to that place where I belong

And hope to God it hasn’t changed

This ain’t where it’s at

My friends will second that

And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad

But it’s like were our own brat pack

We’re always kickin' back

Nobody can take that no no no

This ain’t where it’s at

My friends will second that

And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad

But it’s like were our own brat pack

We’re always kickin' back

Nobody can take that

That is that it’s like its all we have
