From the Nebraska Plant looks back on Jenny’s Kawasaki motorcycle, ending up in a junkyard. But this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. As band member Peter Hughes said “That bike isn’t thrown away.

Signed out AMA, no one really cared

It's somewhere in a wrеck yard now, never see it again on this earth
Let the scavengers proclaim how much it was worth
Out here on the median, not sure what to do
Figure something's gotta happen sometime, I wait all day for you
I wait all day for you
[Chorus]
Flak jacket full of holes
Kevlar coated in dusty black
On your custom Kawasaki
With a stinger on the back
