The Bike Song

Lyrics

[Intro: Spank Rock] I run around town, around 'round and 'round With the pedal to the metal, the pedal to whatever I run around 'round, around 'round the town With the pedal to the metal, the pedal to whatever I run around town, around 'round and 'round With the pedal to the metal, the pedal to whatever I run around 'round, around 'round the town With the pedal to the metal, the pedal to whatever [Verse 1: Kyle Falconer] Shootin' round the streaky bends I hear a conversation in my head Thinkin' of a place to be I sing a little melody instead I won't argue with myself Today my legs are gettin' some help [Pre-Chorus: Kyle Falconer] And my mother tells me I should stop Go and get a real job That can't be the way that I roll And everybody's growin' up Havin' kids and payin' rent They're all gettin' cars of their own [Chorus: Kyle Falconer] Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home [Verse 2: Kyle Falconer] Thinkin' of a girl I met A phone call that I haven't made yet All the things I've done this week And all the things I should've done instead I sweep the pavements and the parks I hope that I get home before it's dark [Pre-Chorus: Kyle Falconer] And my mother tells me I should stop Go and get a real job That can't be the way that I roll And everybody's growin' up Havin' kids and payin' rent They're all gettin' cars of their own [Chorus: Kyle Falconer] Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home [Verse 3: Spank Rock] I can understand it, but I can't really stand 'em Girls love cars, cars cause harm to the planet Don't you wanna take a joyride on my tandem? Hubby on a Huffy, don't I look so handsome? Bikes suffice, they so nice like priceless Working on my calves, the triceps to biceps Bypass the gas, stopped at traffic lights I get around 'round without a driver's licence Hello (Hi!) You walkin'? (No) Farewell (Oh!) I'm off then And I'm whippin' through the city with a 40 and a 50 Party poppin' on my wheelie, good God [Pre-Chorus: Kyle Falconer] My mother tells me I should stop Go and get a real job That can't be the way that I roll And everybody's growin' up Havin' kids and payin' rent They're all gettin' cars of their own [Chorus: Kyle Falconer & Spank Rock] Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home (Oh! Hello! Oh!) And I'm whippin' through the city with a 40 and a 50 Party poppin' on my wheelie [Outro: Kyle Falconer] Gonna ride my bike until I get home Gonna ride my bike until I get home, until I get home Gonna ride my bike, take it bike I'm gonna steal your bike Ride my own bike, I'm gonna take it so far Close to my home that knowin' everyone'll thought I stole that It'll be nice for me and knowin' the place will never question me So I'll be fine in this world that we call mean
