Airport Burrito
Airport burrito
Salsa and lime
Spent a day in California
Just passing the time
Gridlock freeway
Hundred dollar cab
Considering the traffic
That’s really not bad
Now the habanero sauce is burning my mouth
Got heartburn from my dreams on the journey down south
Now every bone in my body just wants to get out
Airport burrito
Salsa and lime
Is believing in something
Really a crime?
Okay well I guess so
If you knew it was wrong
And then you go ‘head
And talk yourself into going along
Had a beat up old suitcase got lost on the way
I had packed up all the reasons I thought I needed to stay
But now I can’t unwrap all them beans in just one day
Airport burrito
Salsa and lime
Just a backpack, a ticket
And a plate of forced rhyme
