We'd stay up all night On Gardner Avenue Debating all the issues of the day No agenda, not yet talking heads Round-and-round until we'd forget where it was that we began Some mornings you would win, some mornings left your ego bruised But, what I wouldn't give For the hope I used to find In a case of Lion's Head And folks of different minds Because though we did not share opinions We shared that American ideal Of friends made over arguments and an early morning buzz I need an early morning buzz I learned the hard way That a simple truth told quietly Always works better than a rant Somewhere along the line We seem to have forgotten The value in sometimes being wrong. Some days you win, some days leave your ego bruised But, what I wouldn't give For the hope I used to find In a case of Lion's Head And folks of different minds Because though we did not share opinions We shared that American ideal Of friends made over arguments and an early morning buzz I need an early morning buzz There's hope behind the bluster Because though Main Street may not sell It's built on folks like you and me So when we're having trouble seeing the human for the politics Gotta find a better way to disagree Some mornings you would win, some mornings left your ego bruised But, what I wouldn't give For the hope I used to find In a case of Lion's Head And folks of different minds Because though we did not share opinions We shared that American ideal Of friends made over arguments and an early morning buzz I need an early morning buzz But, what I wouldn't give For the hope I used to find In a case of Lion's Head And folks of different minds Because though we did not share opinions We shared that American ideal Of friends made over arguments and an early morning buzz I need an early morning buzz
