Ferrari Carnivores

Stands up, hands up, he says I think I'm leaving Country life is only cows and rocks and trees and Girlfriend ain't never been enough for him And he ain't got no tears in his eyes And as a little boy he loved the movies Especially the stories gone from rags to riches Packing up his family has the deepest blues But he ain't got no tears in his eyes That's why he left for the west coast city Where the lights shine bright and the girls are so pretty In the back of our minds we all won that war And we're driving our Ferraris like we're carnivores Leaves are never falling out in east LA He starts to miss the seasons and his mother's face But a dream just ain't a dream until you run the race And he ain't got a doubt in his mind That's why he left for the west coast city Where the lights shine bright and the girls are so pretty In the back of our minds we all won that war And we're driving our Ferraris like we're carnivores Is this exactly what you wanted How would you know it if you had it Just another sucker at the racetrack Losing sight of everything that matters I beg you to please define it don't lose you mind How will you know if enough is enough if you never say where the finish line is Stands up, hands up, he says I think I'm leaving Country life has never really been for me and Girlfriend moved on and now he starts to feel The tears are welling up in his eyes
