Two of the tracks describe the problems of the same two characters: "Don’t just stand there and pout" and "High tide on the causeway" are about a couple who are being hunted by the mob. They both feature a kind of ominous beat that sounds jittery. Can you imagine how frantic the guy is to leave and how the girl is being truculent?
Oh, Oh, Oh yeah its heavy
Oh Oh Ah, get your butt in the Chevy
Don’t want to testify
We can run for freedom or stand here and die, It’s so heavy
Don’t just stand there and pout' Grab your bags we’re checking out
Don’t just stand there and pout, Grab your bags we’re checking out
Could have known the free ride was up
We grabbed for the ring and we drank from the cup
Got a little spacey, got a little fried
Got a little action on the inside, now….
Oh, Oh, Oh yeah its so heavy
Don’t just stand there and pout' Grab your bags we’re checking out
Don’t just stand there and pout, Grab your bags we’re checking out
Gotta leave, got a get away
Gotta get out fast,
Get out on the highway
Don’t stop to consider
Don’t make that last call
Here comes the hitter,
Waiting out in the hall, so…..
Don’t just stand there and pout' Grab your bags we’re checking out
Don’t just stand there and pout, Grab your bags we’re checking out
Checking out
