Someone tried to steal my Dodge Grand Caravan. They failed, but they screwed it up real good. While stuck in Chicago, Matt from the Gunshy and I wrote & recorded a song in its honor.

lyrics

Got up early. Hitched a ride. Adam dropped me off where I left you just last night and you were fine as we pulled away to some festival in Michigan we didn't get to play. Maybe you were close enough to listen when I laughed and said "I might find something different."

I used to sleep with your roof overhead. Your windows my blankets, your bench as my bed. If you fall apart, oh, the money I've spent...I don't think I can fix you again.

"Eight years ago, you used to throw everything you owned where two kids and pets should go. I'd bend and break and hesitate, but I have no complaints. It was the price I had to pay. A heated garage is just one way of living. You never had to replace my transmission.

You used to sleep with my roof overhead. My windows your blankets, my bench as your bed. If you fell apart, we'd start where we would end. I don't think I can fix you again."

She asked me if there was visible damage. I said "It's not the first time I've been stranded." I spit out all my numbers and filed all my claims, and all I have is this one left to make:

I used to sleep with your roof overhead. "My windows your blankets, my bench as your bed." If you fall apart, I don't think I can fix you again.
