3 Minute Hero - Geeks On Bikes

fat man slouched over the bench laughs at my transportation 
every time i drive by him he fills with jubilation 
he`s laughing at my tires he`s laughing at my horn 
and the cards in my spokes 
if i had time i`d tell him my story so he knows i`m not a hoax 
like this: 
my car is shot it hasn`t moved an inch since 1995 
so my friends and i did not have much you could 
call a social life 
we got sick of walking, sick of hitching, sick of taking hikes 
so we didn`t buy a car or a minivan -- we all bought bikes 
geeks on bikes, geeks on bikes (ad nauseum) 
i`m up at dawn to call my friends to relay the day`s big plans 
& before you know it our helmets are on 
our gloves are on our hands 
we drive down main to the dairy queen -- always in single file 
and the fun piles up behind us yeah -- mile after mile 
[chorus] 
i always drive my bike safely with mirrors 
and when it`s dirty i was it with tears
