Characters Video (MV)

All my friends are characters, they've withstood the test of time
Most of them are still around, if somewhat past their prime
Affinity for eccentricity, I favor folks with a bit of quirk
I'd rather hang with a character than a self important jerk

Listen mister we don't need any kind of characters around here
You can stay if you want to conform or you can disappear
Well you can run with sheep or you can run with wolves
Or you can run with the junkyard hounds
As for me, I'll take the last of the three
Roaming free and far away from the pound

Dirty Dave's at the window again, looking for the MBI
Mooney's asking for a piece of gum as he tinkers with his HiFi
Brute Knuckles wants to drum in a band to test out his chops again
Heeter Man escaped Rangeline Road and moved his sorry ass to Deland

Listen mister we don't need any kind of characters around here
You can stay if you want to conform or you can disappear
Well you can run with sheep or you can run with wolves
Or you can run with the junkyard hounds
As for me, I'll take the last of the three
Roaming free and far away from the pound

Like a well formed character in your favorite TV show
Real life can mimic art
Baby don't you know

Jose wants to move to Brazil to live an ex-pat fantasy
Big Nick left his gearhead life to start an art gallery
Shua's got it all going on, a van-lifer's Elon Musk
Edweird's got it all figured out, golf all day, cocktails at dusk

Listen mister we don't need any kind of characters around here
You can stay if you want to conform or you can disappear
Well you can run with sheep or you can run with wolves
Or you can run with the junkyard hounds
As for me, I'll take the last of the three
Roaming free and far away from the pound
