Lyrics-

Ice age heat wave can't complain
if the world's at large why should i remain
walked away to another plan
gonna find another place maybe one i can stand
i move on to another day
to a whole new town with a whole new way
Went to the porch to have a thought
got to the door and again i couldn't stop
you don't know where and you don't know when
but you still got your words and you got your friends
walkin' on to another day
work a little harder work another way
Well uh-uh (<-----chant throughout) baby i ain't got no plan
Well float on maybe would you understand
gonna float on maybe would you understand
well i float on maybe would you understand
        (uh uh uh uh uh uh uhuhuh) x 2
The days get shorter and the nights get cold
i like the autumn but this place is getting old
i pack up my belongings and i head for the coast
it might not be a lot but i feel like i'm making the most
the days get longer and the nights smell green
i guess it's not surprising but it's spring and i should leave
        (uh uh uh uh uh uh uhuhuh) x 2
I like songs about drifters books about the same
they both seem to make me feel a little less insane
walked on off to another spot
i still haven't gotten anywhere that i want
did i want love? did i need to know?
Why does it always feel like i'm caught in an undertow?
        (uh uh uh uh uh uh uhuhuh) x 3
Moths beat themselves to death against the lights
adding their breeze to the summer nights
outside water like air was great
i didn't know what i had that day
walk a little farter to another plan
you said that you did but you didn't understand
        (uh uh uh uh uh uh uhuhuh) x 2
I know that starting over's not what life's about
but my thoughts were so loud i couldn't hear my mouth
my thoughts were so loud i couldn't hear my mouth
my thoughts were so loud-----         (continue the chant and guitar p
                                       to song's end)
