The Great Southwest
Journey Through Life's Southwest: A Melodic Tale of Regrets and Breakaways
Lyrics
The Great Southwest, doing tricks doing pirouettes
The Great Southwest, engaging in maneuvers and spins
Are we there yet?
Expressing impatience or eagerness about reaching a destination
Look at me, I'm a red-rosy silhouette
Describing oneself as a vivid and lively silhouette
Are we there yet?
Reiterating the anticipation or inquiry about reaching the destination
Digging holes of blue hallelujahs
Creating metaphorical holes filled with joy or praise
If I never leave, tell me what's it to ya?
Questioning the significance of leaving, perhaps reluctant to depart
Bury me in the shade with a cigarette
Expressing a desire to be laid to rest in a relaxing place with a cigarette
Are we there yet?
Repeating the inquiry or anticipation of reaching the destination
Honey, I think I have found a way
Expressing a belief in finding a solution or path forward
Yes and this could be our breakaway
Describing an opportunity for a significant change or escape
And I won't let you slip away
Committing to preventing someone from slipping away
Till we're digging holes in the ground
Envisioning a future where they are engaged in joyful activities
Please stop, I don't want a shoeshine
Declining or rejecting the offer of a shoeshine
Are we there yet?
Reiterating the impatience or eagerness about reaching the destination
Steel toe, coat is flannel lined
Describing a sturdy and well-prepared attire
Are we there yet?
Repeating the inquiry or anticipation of reaching the destination
"Lightweight is for quitters and hipsters," he said
Quoting a perspective that rejects lightweight choices
"Wanna feel my flesh and blood, catch sleep when I'm dead
Expressing a desire for a tangible and genuine connection
Getting old is my only regret. Are we there yet?"
Regretting the aging process as the only lament, questioning the progress
Honey, I think I have found a way
Reiterating the belief in finding a solution or path forward
Yes and this could be our breakaway
Repeating the description of an opportunity for a significant change or escape
And I won't let you slip away
Reaffirming the commitment to preventing someone from slipping away
Till we're digging holes in the ground
Envisioning a future where they are engaged in joyful activities
Getting old is my only regret. Are we there yet?
Reiterating the regret about aging as the only concern, questioning progress
Getting old is my only regret. Are we there yet?
Repeating the regret about aging as the only concern, questioning progress
