The Grind - Team StarKid

Alright, that was three sounds!

I think three things broke

We’re travelling

Down a bumpy road

Just relaxing

Let the miles unfold

Nothing brings a family 'gether like some dust in the eye

And we’ll be there in the nick of time

Me and my family

We’re smiling

At a steady pace

Your daughter’s crying

Missouri’s such a beautiful state

And it feels like every day’s another Fourth of July

I got my freedom and my slice of pie

My beautiful family

Now come on kids it’s time that we play a game

I spy some fun out here on the Great Plains

Stop for a second take it all in

«Are we there yet?»

Is the wrong question

You thought road trips were lame

Well they all ain’t the same oh no

It’s the grind

Take it one day at a time

And we’ll find our way back home

Free your mind

Push your worries down the line

And we’ll ease on down the road

Stop and look around do the chimney rock

Dad that totally looks like a giant co-

Cock-a-doo-del-do!

I wish there was something that could capture this moment

Something that fits right into your pocket

But we got time to kick the idea around

Oh boy!

It’s the grind

Every bump by design

To grow some hair on your chest

Fall in line

Let your dad read the signs

Who’s Your Daddy

Tour Guide Company

Of the Wild Wild West

I’m trying

To enjoy the trip

I’m babysitting

But not my kids

Sometimes I wonder what the hell goes on in his head

Would he notice if any one of us wound up dead

Who’m I kidding

Lord knows he’d kill himself instead

Can’t say I’d tell a difference in bed

My beautiful family-

Dad, I wanna keep this as a pet!

Throw it in back!

Do that and you will regret it!

We need a few souvenirs to prove that we passed the test

I think I’m gonna throw up

If you’re motion sick then get off the cart

And give the soles of your feet a shot

Nothing quite cures your ills like a song and dance

It’s the grind yeah yeah

Family dance break!

(spoken)

Keep up, people!

Alright, I’m trying

Everyone say yeah e yeah yeah

Yeah e yeah yeah

Say yeah ye yeah

Yeah ye yeah

And say hey e ah ah ahahahah

Hey e ah ah ahahahah

Say hey ahahahahah yeah e yeah e yeah e yeah-

(sung)
