What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Out on the old coast highway
2
Flyin' through the night
3
Jed got stopped by the CHP
4
For speedin' and no brake lights
5
Rolled down the drivers window
6
Slipped his gun down under the seat
7
Glove box full of cocaine
8
Trunk was full of weed
9
"Driver's license and registration,"
10
Said the officer with his flashlight
11
Searchin' around the floor of the car
12
Smellin' like somethin' ain't right
13
Jed's life flashed before him
14
Like a black and white super 8
15
He heard the sound of the future
16
On a scratchy old 78
17
Nothin' was still, all was movin'
18
When the flashlight found the gun
19
Then jed pulled the trigger
20
In a split second tragic blunder
21
"Makes you think about livin'
22
And what life has to tell,"
23
Said jed to grandpa
24
From inside his cell
25
Camouflage hung in his closet
26
Guns all over the wall
27
Plans for buildings and engineers
28
And a book with no numbers at all
29
The whole town was stunned
30
They closed the coast highway for 12 hours
31
No one could believe it
32
Jed was one of ours
33
Meanwhile across the ocean
34
Living in the internet
35
Is the cause of an explosion
36
No one has heard yet
37
But there's no need to worry
38
There's no reason to fuss
39
Just go on about your work now
40
And leave the driving to us
41
And we'll be watching you
42
No matter what you do
43
And you can do your part
44
By watching others too
45
Grandpa put down the paper
46
Staring in disbelief
47
Jed had always been good to him
48
And never gave him any grief
49
"The moral of this story
50
Is try not to get too old
51
The more time you spend on earth
52
The more you see unfold
53
And as an afterthought
54
This must to be told
55
Some people have taken pure bullshit
56
And turned it into gold"
