Lyrics Chevrolet Van by The Nude Party

I got some free advice just the other day
From an older relative of mine
He said "You know, I dig what you do
But I think you’re wastin your time
Yes, I do
Because drivin' around and gettin' drunk with your friends in a van every night
Yeah, that sounds like a lotta fun
But you need a plan B, 'cause it ain’t gonna last
Long past twenty one"

You’ll never make enough money
And no one cares about the things you say
You’re gonna wake up someday
Man, you’ll wish you got a job
Spend half your life in that Chevrolet
Drivin' up and down the freeway
Someday, when you’re too old to play
Yeah, you’ll wish you got a job

Bummed a cigarette from a guy when I was in Manhattan last week
And I told him politely, thank ya
Then with this hollowed-out look, he turned and said
"You know for twenty-five years now, I’ve been a banker
And you know, in all my many years of life, I suddenly feel obliged
To impart to you this free piece of advice
You must invest
In your future"
I said "Thanks for the cigarette, but I think I know the rest"

(Oh) You’ll never make enough money
And no one cares about the things you say
You’re gonna wake up someday
Man, you’ll wish you got a job
Spend half your life in that Chevrolet
Driving up and down the freeway
Someday, when you’re too old to play
Man, you’ll wish you got a job
You’ll never make enough money
And no one cares about the things you say
You’re gonna wake up someday
Man, you’ll wish you got a job
Spend half your life in that Chevrolet
Driving up and down the freeway
Someday, when you’re too old to play
Man, you’ll wish you got a job
Yeah, you’ll never make enough money
And no one cares about the things you say
You’re gonna wake up someday
Man, you’ll wish you got a job
