[Verse 1]
Driving in our Airstream
We're a band on the road
With equipment, roadies, a manager
We've got a heavy load
[Chorus]
Airstream! Airstream! Airstream!
Get out of my lane!
Airstream! Airstream! Airstream!
[Verse 2]

Cause you've never seen us play
With our Airstream's aerodynamic design

Airstream! Airstream! Airstream!
[Verse 3]
Airstream is so shinny
And it's made out of aluminum
You can't tell if it's a '64
Or an '81
[Bridge]
I know that it's American made
So my chest just swells with pride
Then I grab that stainless steel handle
And I take a step inside

We're completely self contained
[Chorus]
Airstream! Airstream! Airstream!
Get out of my lane!
Airstream! Airstream! Airstream!
[Verse 4]
Airstream is so beautiful
We can hardly keep the foxes out
When we round that final corner
We can hear them shout
[Outro]
Airstream!
The Vandals released Airstream on Tue Jun 05 1984.
