lyrics

When I was four years old
I went to school in Sackville 'til I turned five
My best friends were Jason and Francis
I wonder if they're still alive?
But for the last 20 years
Only stopped for nuggets on the edge of town
Now I'm making my way to the Bridge St. stage
To watch some bands throw down

I wanna be a part of the puzzle
But I'd rather play than play the hustle
But I worry that I ain't got the guts for the struggle
I wanna be a part of the puzzle

I saw a local band making good
Harley is smiling before I can turn my head
Like the pins at the end of the lane
Ah man, they knocked us dead
Julie sings a Sam Cooke song
There's a pizza party in the pit
A late-night walk through the waterfowl park
Looking for my own swamp magic

I wanna be a part of the puzzle
But I'd rather play than play the hustle
But I worry that I ain't got the guts for the struggle
I wanna be a part of the puzzle

All the lake-drivers got drunk
So I guess we're staying in town
I'm headed back to the tent
To drink a beer and lay down

*rant*
(true story)

I wanna be a part of the puzzle
But I'd rather play than play the hustle
But I worry that I ain't got the guts for the struggle
I wanna be a part of the puzzle
