How Was the Show Last Night

How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go

Was it the simple song that we heard in the days of old?

Or did they lose that something? Did they lose that sense of soul?

How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go

Hey! Now I'ma tell you a little story

See, I come from a walk-around town, you don't need no car

It's a little hole in the ground where the people still know who they are

I was chilling down on Main Street, saw my man named Flynn

You know Flynn, he's got so many friends

Said he'd been sensing the pause of the people in town

Said he'd been feeling some disconnections, so he asked

How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go

Was it the simple song that we heard in the days of old?

Or did they lose that something? Did they lose that sense of soul?

How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go

So I told him

There's a party at my house on Saturday at a quarter to four

And if you're coming, be prepared

We gon' shake it, shake it down for sure

I told my boy Benjamin to bring his banjo

And Marcus dependable with the drum kit too

Flynn said, "If they show up

With the get up and the set up for the band show

You'd better bring the music in you"

And play that one song

And play that one song

You know we play that one song

And we did play that one song

And it went something like this

We had to leave home to remember what it means to be alive

And somewhere along the way, we started grinding the grind, nine-to-five

I'm tired of what I'm here for, being different than what I'm pursuing

'Cause I'm a human being, I'm not a human doing

Now the plan at the party was we just jam on our microphones

But the crowd got down and brought a spirit to it all it's own

And even though drunk Danny brought his kids and left the booze at home

And I could feel the connection, I could feel I was not alone (how was the show last night?)

Now by Sunday morning, word starts to get around town

You know the people love to talk about the shake it, shake it down for sure

You know Flynn, he's got so many friends

And typically on a Sunday, I'm out with my family, yes

We get hungry for some breakfast

We get going, grab a bite and a taste of tea

Before I could order, the waitress asked me, she said

"How was the show last night?" She said

"How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go

Was it the simple song that we heard in the days of old?

Or did they lose that something? Did they lose that sense of soul?"

She asked me, "How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go"

How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go (yeah)

(I was wondering if I should go, how was the show?)

Was it the simple song that we heard in the days of old? (Oh yeah)

(I missed the old things)

Or did they lose that something? Did they lose that sense of soul?

How was the show last night? I was wondering if I should go

Did you play that one song?

You know we played that one song, ay, yeah

C'mon, there's a party at my house on Saturday at a quarter to two

Said I'm having a party, you can come if you want to

'Cause I'm a human being, I'm not a human doing

'Cause I'm a human being, I'm not a human doing

How was the show last night?
