Rock and Roll Camper Songtext
von School for the Dead

We can save our money
Invest it in a camper
Drive across the country
And turn around again

We′ll decorate our camper
With strings of paper lantern
Hang a plastic panther
On our CB antennae

We putt across the country
With our windshield wipers squealing
There's a road-side attraction
Let′s pull into a few spots

We can take a picture
Of our Rock and Roll Camper
Leaning on a palm tree
Or half-way up a mountain.


Part way through the tunnel
We lose our reception
We made it through the Rockies
The sun in the sky above the water's been waiting
You and for me in our Rock and Roll Camper
To see the world
To see the world

We might see a tornado
Or a flooded Baptist graveyard
Maybe in the desert
We'll find a dying lizard

At night beneath the kudzu
The crickets screaming murder
We got sand in the camper
From our quest for sand dollars

We try to cross the border
They search us for an hour
We played catch with pebbles
Until they finally let us through

We pull into the slow lane
Our camper radio blaring
"We came to take it up"
In our Rock and Roll Camper


Half-way through the tunnel we lose our reception
We made it through the Rockies
The sun in the sky above the waters been waiting
And I call it′s you and me versus the world
Armed with just a camper and a flash-busted camera
We can′t go wrong.

We can't go wrong.
