Riding Breaks

about

I love writing short songs like this. Short in that I didn't write much for it.
This song means nothing, really. A nonsense song like the kind found on They Might Be Giants' first album. Words that go together for the sake of words going together.
I love the mix of acoustic and electric in this song. Overall, a good closing of the EP, I think so.

lyrics

I drove it deep into chests
I drove my points back home
They called back in response
"Bring your points back home,
We're not done with them yet"

CHORUS
I'm just riding breaks
Down your steep hills
I'm just riding breaks
Just for the cheap thrills

The bass guitarist went home
Kicking a can all the way
The lead guitarist followed
Neither of them came back
To work the next day

CHORUS

What would I have to do without you?
