Bottle Rocket Lyrics[Verse 1]
In front of Walker's Dairy Bar
Pulled up in your brother's car
Windows down, it was hot
But it made no difference
Too hot in the station wagon
Fingers up out of habit
Where to go, we didn't know
But it made no difference
[Chorus]
Light me up on your bottle rocket
Taking off, you can call me stardust
We're not coming down now, we're not coming down
[Verse 2]
Butch and Tilly by the liquor store
Quinton plays his saxophone
No one's there to fill his can
But it made no difference
He kept a handle in the glove
For anyone that's feeling fun
He never had an empty glass
But it made no difference
[Chorus]
Light me up on your bottle rocket
Taking off, you can call me stardust
We're not coming down now, we're not coming down
Light me up on your bottle rocket
Taking off, you can call me stardust
We're not coming down now, we're not coming down
[Bridge]
Where does the band go when the show is over?
Who clears the tables and locks the place up?
And all of that paper from firecrackers
Does it just wash away once we've had our fun?
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
[Chorus]
Light me up on your bottle rocket
Taking off, you can call me stardust
We're not coming down now, we're not coming down
