About

This song is an obituary for long-time Piebald tour van “Melvin.” The van was like an additional member of the band, and this is them going through their grief of losing a bud. They released a T-shirt featuring Melvin with wings, ascending over a rainbow to heaven on this tour. Melvin’s door is on t...

King of the Road Lyrics

[Intro]
Andy went back to school
He got sick of Newbury Comics
Aaron still rides a lot
Except now, now he's just fatter
Alex took over for Alex Van Halen
After his major surgery
Jon, well, he got married to Laura
And I teach their kid in first grade

[Verse 1]
Thought I saw you on the road last night
I need to get my eyes checked
Can't believe I loved something as yellow as you
He's gone, so deal with it, man
But wait, after all, you did get us across the world and back

[Verse 2]
Weren't you parked at the station?
My mind is playing tricks on me
Can't believe I loved something as yellow as you
He's gone, so deal with it, man
But wait, after all, you did get us across the world and back (hell yeah)

[Bridge]
We left you in a Carolina; I need to rub my eyes
We keep your door like it's a postcard from you
From camp

[Verse 3]
Maybe see you at a junkyard soon
Oh man, I really hope not
Can't believe I loved something as yellow as you
He's gone, so deal with it, man
But wait, after all, you did get us across the world and back

[Verse 4]
Maybe you're in auto heaven
Oh man, I really hope so
Can't believe I loved something as yellow as you
He's gone, so deal with it, man
But wait, after all, you did get us across the world and back
Wait, after all, you did get us across the world and back
Hell yeah

[Outro]
Now, it's all the same
Now, it's all the same
Now, it's all the same
Now, it's all the same

[Travis talking to children]
"You're so excited about singing. You're gonna sing like, you're, you got an A on your report card. Ready? One, two, three, four..."

[Intro to Just a Simple Plan (Travis and children singing)]
Just a simple plan to keep you awake
It's just a simple plan to keep you awake
No matter what I try
Your eyeballs seem to hide

"We're getting there."
