Powder Meet
by: PuffballPreparation took long but now it feels just right.
Had to make a few calls to make sure it'd be a helluva night.
Jumped into my sneakers, stopped by at a couple of bars.
Now line up the action, I got my shoes with the punk rock stars.
You know that you just can't be beat
Gonna meet the guys with the itchy feet.
And you end up laughing in the backseat
It's back to normal here at the Powder meet.
Drawbacks are few when you're leaving for a night on town.
Hungry for kicks, just want it all to spin round and round.
Hitching a ride and got served up a little treat.
The radio is blasting and it's no question that we own the street.
You know that you just can't be beat
Gonna meet the guys with the itchy feet.
And you end up laughing in the backseat
It's back to normal here at the Powder meet.
Drawbacks are few …
It's a bumpy ride but it's a night that noones wants to end.
If you got the goods be sure we've got the money to spend.
Staying up till the morning on our quest for top speed.
