Sister City - Wasted Midwestern Lyrics

When kicked out of bars that have lawfully closed
Where do those wasted Midwestern kids go?
House parties, backseats, and warehouse shows
Having the best time they can before giving up the ghost

Sadie in the back of a parked car
With some guy she just met at some gnarly bar
Parallel to the floorboards the two of them
With chemicals pulsing through systems
Sadie has to be to work by six A.M.
But she's already decided to call in
This guy, he has certain expectations
And she can't bear the thought of displeasing him

When kicked out of bars that have lawfully closed
Where do those wasted Midwestern kids go?
House parties, backseats, and warehouse shows
Having the best time they can before giving up the ghost

When the house lights come on the kids go outside
And stand in the street until they decide
Where to head next and who's giving who rides
Knowing all too well that nobody should drive
The guys in the bands are still stuck inside
Gotta haul their shit back to their homes tonight
Girlfriends get impatient and leave them behind
It sucks, but the guys, they don't mind

It's a small price to pay and it's a pretty great high
It's no price to pay and it's the best high
It's a small price to pay and it's a pretty great high
It's no price to pay and it's the best high

When kicked out of bars that have lawfully closed
Where do those wasted Midwestern kids go?
House parties, backseats, and warehouse shows
Having the best time they can before giving up the ghost

Sadie comes out every time, to every show
Wakes up the next mornings still in the same clothes
She knows the best kind of nights bleed into next days
Even if sometimes they come with some shirt stains

When kicked out of bars that have lawfully closed
Where do those wasted Midwestern kids go?
House parties, backseats, and warehouse shows
Having the best time they can before giving up the ghost

The best time they can
The best time they can

We're having the best time we can
