Gary's Garage

(Also released under the title "Loud.")

Kathryn can't stand it when we're crankin' up the amps
She says she don't like it loud, but we don't understand
But she's not the one who is coming to the shows
To hear it really loud, to watch us lose control
We used to play with Batman and Star Wars in the yard
Now it's the garage and we're using loud guitars

In Gary's Garage, yeah, my home away from Mom
In Gary's Garage, where the monsters can't get us
In Gary's Garage, yeah, the circus just began
In Gary's Garage, where the music is my friend

The kids are in the front and they're screaming for it loud
But we've just blown an amp and the mics are fuzzin' out
They're stepping on each other and I think I see one dead
But they don't even care cause they just want it loud
Well we used to play with Pac-man and slinkys in the yard
Now it's the garage and we're using loud guitars

In Gary's Garage, yeah, my home away from Mom
In Gary's Garage, where the monsters can't get us
In Gary's Garage, yeah, the circus just began
In Gary's Garage, where the music is my friend

My friends have all grown up and they're married with a job
They wear their suits and ties and they say that they know God
But when they hear my song and they say that I'm in sin
I crank it even louder and I tell them, "Think again!"
But we used to play with tinker toys and sleep out in the yard
Now it's the garage and we're using loud guitars

In Gary's Garage, yeah, my home away from Mom
In Gary's Garage, where the monsters can't get us
In Gary's Garage, yeah, the circus just began
In Gary's Garage, where the music is my friend
