Burger King, 4am

You know how we live somewhere cool?

Here's how

Burger King, 4am

That's how

How many other places in the world
Can you be hanging out
At a Burger King
At 4am?

That's pretty damn cool, right?

And not even 4am on a Saturday
4am on a TUESDAY

That's how you know
You're living in a place
With some culture

With some city life
You know what I mean?

Think about the night we had tonight

Hitting up some girls at Cumberland Farms
Hitting up some girls at 7-11
Hitting up some girls at the Hess Station

You realize there are people
Who did NOTHING tonight?

Who just sat around watching tv
Being boring?

Man, if I ever wind up like that
Just tell me

Be like, Man, you're lame
And I'll be like, damn I am
And we'll go get some food
Right here, okay?

Right here, let's make a pact

We're never going to be boring
And we're never going to be lame
And we're never going to do nothing
Even when we turn eighteen
And go to college
And everybody's telling us
We need to study more

We're still gonna be ourselves
And stay up until 4am
Until that girl gets off her shift
So we can see which of us
She likes better
Even though we know it's me

We're still gonna be city boys, right?

What's the point of being from somewhere cool
If you don't take advantage of it, you know what I mean?

If you got a Burger King
That stays open all night
What's the point of going at five
When everybody else does?

If you got an all-nite Burger King
Then you better be there at 4am
With your four best friends
Waiting for the rest of the world to wake up
So they can see the bags under your eyes
And know that you've been livin'
While they were sleepin'

That's how you gotta be

That's a fortune cookie right there

That's how you gotta look
At everything
