Alfred Trip

The greatest day starts with something simple Ben says to Julia, It's beautiful outside, let's take advantage Let's go find Fein, we'll hop into his Honda, do some highway flying But we'll keep the destination a surprise I don't have a change of underwear, a change of anything But I wouldn't change anything from how it is Like this, with nothing as the norm We bought the camera, turned our phones off, turned my mind off It was the right time to roll to me, and I was sleepy in the back And the birds fly by the thousands, it's a sure sign Of sunny days to come It made sense at the time Here's his hometown, take a snapshot, see the sundown No no nobody's home but Mocha, fill my sandwich with capicola To the workshop, meet the boy who's Daddy owns this town He's crafting hands of metal made to hammer on the ground Write the list out on my arm of all the people Whose faces we have to find It made sense at the time Spray the scent into the faces of the students Waltz around with Jarett for 46 seconds of your life Spin the baby on your shoulders till he's dizzy Only mad ones understand but at least we know That it made sense at the time Cassidy placed perfectly, but Jarett's out so Julia can't be His make-believe biggest fan I'm chasing deer but feeling fearful, the point of sudden trips unclear to All them Alfred boys and I don't blame them Pounding Rolling Rock, "looks like I'm the a-hole, kids" Ben, you never said your mom was chiller than a fridge We pile in the van like on the way to soccer practice And that's when things got snowball out of control Go find the soulmate who your sister said was hybrid Take a peanut butter Play-Doh shot 'Cause we ain't holding back tonight Don't be showing up unless you're unexpected Only mad ones understand but at least we know That it made sense at the time I'm calling my brother up, fill me up another cup He's turning 25 so everybody f-ing sing We know you can dance like your name is Lance Bass So come on break it down like you're in N'Sync Calling on a sorta friend to get in touch with Hybrid Ben D-mn it Julia, that's the reason that you came Well this is sort of awkward and I swear I'm not a stalker But I'm pretty sure you met my older sister on a plane I got the air freshener, I could be the messenger These kids are pretty smelly and they really oughta know Crunked as you are, you shoulda stuck to the guitar These kids are pretty angry now we really have to go Don't knock it till you taste it, it's great when you're wasted Local food at a townie discount I pushed her in the snow, I'm sprawled on the bed, I earned drunk friend probation yea yea yea The next morning Ben's mom put the crisp wiggle in my bacon That's not a sexual thing The next morning I knew I had all the love that I need But the pictures won't capture it, the pictures won't capture these feelings The pictures won't capture it Only mad ones understand but at least we know it made sense It made sense at the time The greatest day ends with something simple The three of us with tired smiles on the Colgate sign for the last picture I think I'm crashing down from this high I think I'm crashing
