All those wasted hours we used to know
Spent the summer staring out the window
The wind it takes you where it wants to goAt first they built the road then they built the town
La la la la la la la la-aa
Thats why were still drivin round and round
It always seems, the kids and buses longin to be freeWasted hours before we knew
Where to go and what to do
Wasted hours that you make new
Turn into a life that we can liveSome cities make you loose your head
La la la la la la la la-aa
Then theres suburbs stretched out thin and dead
What was that line that you saidWishin you were anywhere but here
La la la la la la la la-aa
You watch the life your livin disappear
And now I see were still kids and buses longin to be freeWasted hours before we knew
Where to go and what to do
Wasted hours that you make new
Turn into a life that we can live
