about

Pick Me Up is a garage rock anthem celebrating the joys of having a bassist with a car that can get us to practice when the MBTA shits the bed.

lyrics

The wheels on the bus go round and round
but they never stop for me
The wheels on the bus can run a-ground
how dare they charge a fee

There's no room for you and me
Its a pure shit-storm cacophony
There was a time I could just read and be
The struggle is plain to see

So Holly pick me up!
Take me to practice
Holly pick me up!
Or getting there is hopeless

Sink holes and fire, forever in a mire
We're in a state of decay
Bust open the windows, jump off the tracks
Its just the MBTA

Redline, greenline, gaslight Charlie
You better spare the blue
Take that away from us, buddy,
the riders will come for you.

So Holly pick me up!
Take me to practice
Holly pick me up!
Or getting there is hopeless

*flute stuff*

Holly pick me up!
Take me to practice
Holly pick me up!
Or getting there is hopeless
