What Are You Listening To?

I think I live my life to these lyrics sometimes

“You got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere,
Maybe we make a deal? Maybe together we can get somewhere?
Any place is better! Starting from zero, got nothing to lose..
Maybe we'll make something,
Me myself I got nothing to prove..

You got a fast car, I got a plan to get us outta here!
I been working at the convenience store, managed to save just a little bit of money, and we won't have to drive too far—
Just 'cross the border and into the city!
You and I can both get jobs, finally see what it means to be living..

See my old man's got a problem, he lives with a bottle—that's the way it is,
He says his body's too old for working, his body's too young to looking like this..
When momma went off and left him, she wanted more from life than he could give,
I said “Somebody's gotta take care of him!” so I quit school and that's what I did..”

Does anybody actually like this song? I must admit it's catchy. But the lyrics are a sign of the times.
