I read the paper just the other day
About a buddy of mine who headed to an early grave
They say he went in his sleep
With a smile on his face
Bet he was dreaming 'bout those better days
When the crash of the drums
Hit like the waves on a beach
That cheap bass and guitar and our wildest dreams
We were searching for a savior like anybody else
Trying to save ourselves from ourselves
Chorus:
Just a garage band
We weren't alive
We were livin' in Garageland
Our parents all held jobs but we had other plans
We acted like our heroes
They just didn't understand
We were never afraid to fall
It was us and those four walls
Chorus:
Just a Garage band
We weren't alive
We were livin' in Garageland
Nothing ever felt so right
Just us, those guitars
And a Saturday night
Bridge:
'cause with the strap on your back
you have wings on your feet
you felt like the king, when you walked down the street
we heard all those records and knew we belong
when the drums hit the groove, we all sing along
Chorus:
(Nanana) Just a Garage band
(nanana)We were livin' in Garageland
(nanana) Just a Garage band
(nanana) We weren't alive
We were livin' in Garageland
Nothing ever felt so right
It was us, those guitars
And a Saturday night
