I want to see you sometime
Come find me I'll be home
I'm just between the Costco
And the Barnes and Noble
Behind the mom and pop grocery
That shut down in the nineties
Like all the other locals
They smashed the dreams of the hopeful
I'm getting off track, sorry
So like I said right in there
It was the Frederick Meyers
Sold everything from fruit to tires
Check in with the doorman
An old biker named Slim
Just say you're here to see me
And don't forget to tip him
One hand must wash the other
Each man must be a brother
Band up and take cover
We'll go dancing, set fires
Tag buildings and slash tires
Drive go-carts like Shriners
Or just hang out at Fred Meyers
Bring a lantern with you
It gets dark in places
Walk up the escalator
To the section that was kidswear
I'm at the back wall, left side
Under a sign that says Levi's
Top bunk second row
If I'm not in right then
Ask around, somebody'll know
'Cause everybody knows me here
One hand must wash the other
Each man must be a brother
Band up and take cover
We'll go dancing, set fires
Tag buildings and slash tires
Drive go-carts like Shriners
Or just hang out at Fred Meyers
We'll go out babe, skateboarding
Go looting for food hoarding
Whatever you desire
We could just stay in my bed at Fred Meyers
One hand must wash the other
Each man must be a brother
Band up and take cover
We'll go dancing, set fires
Tag buildings and slash tires
Drive go-carts like Shriners
Or just hang out at Fred Meyers
We'll go out, babe, drink moonshine
Or tip rubble on the East Side
Dig deep holes to China
Or we could just stay in my bed at Fred Meyers
Why don't you just stay in my bed at Fred Meyers
Come find me I'll be home
I'm just between the Costco
And the Barnes and Noble
Behind the mom and pop grocery
That shut down in the nineties
Like all the other locals

I don\'t think this song is boring at all. I think it is quite cool.
Agreed. Boooring.
I\'m a huge Toad fan and I\'ve seen Glen perform solo. In fact I saw him perform this song a couple years ago, shortly after he wrote it. Having a little trouble getting into it though...I guess I just prefer the deeper/darker music that Toad made.
What a boring song. I don't care who the singer is. This song is just boring, the lyrics are so un-exciting that I'm in severe danger of falling asleep while typing these lines ... zzz ... 
I wonder if I\'ll ever hear this song while shopping at Wal-Mart? 
This is a great tune. Glen is the former lead singer/songwriter for \"Toad The Wet Sprocket\". It\'s off his latest solo effort \"Abulum\" - Yes that\'s spelled right! the chorus just sticks in your head for hours. I love this tune.
