lyrics
TOYOTA DOLPHIN
Don’t know how it got so shitty
You can blame it on the city
First for going broke then selling off it’s soul
Or blame it on the boomers
Those that didn’t get here sooner
For arriving late and mining all the gold
And if you can’t afford the room
Well you can’t afford the view
‘cos there’s someone out of town willing to pay
Guess I’m only passing through
Got another day or two
Then sail away Toyota Dolphin, sail away
And there’s no place here for you
It will never be your time we skipped your section on the line
And there’s no place here for you
Go and find another dream and sail away toyota dolphin sail away
Oh, sail away
I hear there are places out of state
Where a man can find a way to make ends meet
And get a piece before it’s gone
Take your California dollar
Someplace you can make an offer
Where folks don’t just yet know what they’re sitting on
Then you sell that Toyota Dolphin
You don’t see them listed often
‘Cos there’s always someone who’s willing to pay
For that chance to start again
Pack your family up and then
Sail away, Toyota Dolphin, Sail Away
And there’s no place here for you
It will never be your time we skipped your section on the line
And there’s no place here for you
Go and find another dream and sail away toyota dolphin sail away
Oh, sail away
