The gang, which is kept in line by Poppa (Yoba), gets acquainted on a decaying bus as they travel down the East Coast, encountering barroom fights and other problems en route to the video gig.

Written by Craig Nicholls.

    This song was also featured on an episode of America's Funniest Home Videos in 2006 during a montage of motorcycle accidents and in the "Best Movie" montage at the 2004 MTV Movie Awards for nominee Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

    Only Now

    by: Ride

    Only Now the jewel shining
    Only Now I've lost the fear
    In an hour I'll stop crying
    Along the road ahead
    Early on our life burned
    Early on the gem not clear
    Comes the time to take a turn
    To find another way
    And I swear
    No hurricane could lead me all astray
    And I swear
    No hurricane would dare to try to keep me away
    Only Now have you touched me
    But by now you're who knows where
    Only Now has it hit me
    Wasn't sure before
    Early on the signals cross
    Where's the potion where's the drug
    Just for now the jewel is lost
