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
