Let's stay in bed, no better yet
Take my bike and go outside
'Cause if I don't and stay inside
Then I know we'll lose our minds
(And I don't wanna my mind, not yet)
Thought I was dead, buried and left
All I did was take a breather
Tied to the bed so I could stay
Out of trouble for a day
Yeah right, no way
This is home, this is roots
This is where you're understood
Take your bike and leave the car
Going straight to Eric's Bar
'You're on your own' was on the phone
It's too hot to stay inside, he said
So get your shorts and find a smile
Let's go grab a beer a while, just for a while
We ramble on, humming a song, we don't mean to hurt no one
We blow our nose in the dresscodes
They don't even see us run with our worn-out sneakers on
Take a dive, skinny dip, it's okay to lose your grip,
feel the breeze, cool the brew, giving Kimberley the lip
You never have to lie, never have to fake,
never lose your fun, never have to hide away
These people know you well, they will not kiss and tell,
never have to run, you never have to run or hide
This is roots
This is where you're understood
Take your bike and leave the car
Cause we won't be going far
This is home, this is roots
This is where you're understood
So take your bike and leave the car
We're going straight to Eric's bar
To Eric's bar
