The Grind

Team StarKid

Father:
We're travelling
Down a bumpy road
Just relaxing
Let the miles unfold
Nothing brings a family 'gether like some dust in the eye
And we'll be there in the nick of time
Me and my family

We're smiling
At a steady pace

Mother:
Your daughters crying

Father:
Missouri's such a beautiful state
And it feels like everyday's another fourth of july
I got my freedom and my slice of pie
My beautiful family

Now come on kids it's time that we play a game
I spot some fun out here on the great plains
Stop for a second take it all in
"Are we there yet?" is the wrong question
You thought road trips were lame
Well they all ain't the same oh no

It's the grind
Take it one day at a time
And we'll find our way back home

Free your mind
Push your worries down the line
And we'll ease on down the road

Stop and look around do the chimney rock

Daughter:
Dad that totally looks like a giant co-

Father:
Cock-a-doo-del-do!
I wish there was something that could capture this moment
Something that fits right into your pocket
But we got time to kick the idea around
Oh boy!

It's the grind
Every bump by design
To grow some hair on your chest

Fall in line
Let your debt read the signs
Whose your daddy
Two got company
Of the wild wild west

Mother:
I'm trying
To enjoy the trip
I'm babysitting
But not my kids
Sometimes I wonder what the hell goes on in his head
Would he notice if any one of us wound up dead
Whom I kidding
Lord knows he'd kill himself instead
Can't say I'd tell a difference in bed
My beautiful family-

Son:
Dad I wanna keep this as a pet!

Father:
Throw it in a bag!

Mother:
Do that and you will regret it!

Father:
We need a few souvenirs if we past the test

Daughter:
I think I'm gonna throw up

Father:
If you're motion sick then get off the pot
And give the sole of your feet a shot
Nothing quite cures your heels like a song and dance

It's the grind yeah yeah
