Drive By Truckers
Brighter Than Creation's Dark
The Opening Act
Thereââ¬â¢s a big fat man on a mechanical bull in slow motion like Debra Winger
And he gets knocked off and I think heââ¬â¢s hurt,
Itââ¬â¢s a bitch facing facts and figures
Thereââ¬â¢s a band on stage that used to be huge
They sound on but no oneââ¬â¢s listening
Theyââ¬â¢re told to turn down and they politely oblige
Ainââ¬â¢t no such thing as a free ride
It ainââ¬â¢t my problem and it ainââ¬â¢t my show and I ainââ¬â¢t being condescending
Itââ¬â¢s just the opening slot and I hit my mark and split as the crowd is thinning
The manââ¬â¢s on the guest list so I guess it will be alrightââ¬Â¦
So the paramedics arrive and they haul off that Urban Bovine Kneivel
I see my friend and give him all my money and tell myself itââ¬â¢s a necessary evil
And itââ¬â¢s all such a fleeting thing so Iââ¬â¢d best try and enjoy it
So much beauty and just enough time to figure out how to destroy it
Iââ¬â¢m just the opening act
And it ainââ¬â¢t my crowd and it ainââ¬â¢t my night but Iââ¬â¢d be lying if I said I canââ¬â¢t relate
Iââ¬â¢m just the opening act and the van is packed and Iââ¬â¢m hauling ass to another state
And Iââ¬â¢m driving north as the sun was rising over a Technicolor horizon
I reached out to touch you but youââ¬â¢re not there, a thousand miles away from here
I turned up the radio; heard some preacher talking salvation
My tank is half full and I reached over and changed the station
Iââ¬â¢m just the opening act
