Cassette Deck, Road Trip, Grand Canyon

I heard the cry out as the car came to a STOP!

A mix of panic, then relief on the edge of the Grand Canyon

Ten seconds later still sitting frozen we burst out into

Fucking killer laughter - i couldn't catch my breath forever!

And then it hit me! "Hey can you play that tape back?!?!"

I.. I.. I..can't believe that it was rollin'!!

Listen to the sounds of our commentary, then wicked yelling out

Screeching wheels, silence, howls...

That three week road trip was a road trip and a half - MAYBE MORE!

Captured on one roll of film, out of focus pictures bore,

Every national monument - every tourist trap

Across the 48 states that fell within our path

And then it hit me! "Hey can you play that tape back?!?!"

I.. I.. I..can't believe that it was rollin'!!

Listen to the sounds of our commentary, laughing old man please shut up,

I've heard way more than enough!

By my count it all ended - 17 CASSETTE TAPES LATER!

Stupid, brain dead observations - yes we were much too clever

To know that we were having the time of our lives

Now years later listening to those cassettes drives me to cry...

And then it hit me! "Hey can you play that tape back?!?!"

I.. I.. I..can't believe that it was rollin'!!

Listen to the sounds of our commentary

Recording our lives ourselves, i'm glad i have them now...
