lyrics

Over & Under
V1
Tori drives over the freeway bridge in her plug in car
She’s happy the battery charge will take her pretty far
Tell friends it does zero to sixty in the blink of an eye
If only she could beat the jams she could really let it fly

Under that freeway bridge , Nate’s tarp and wood chip home
His prized possession is a pillow cut from sofa foam
Walks Skid Row with his “Cadillac” shopping cart
He may never see sixty , since his life fell apart
Chorus
One goes over, one goes under
One likes to be the first
One just wants to eat
One goes over and one goes under
Two lives passing close
Yet so far apart
Over and under, over and under
V2
Tori drums her steering wheel to some radio rock
Unaware of the deals going down on a passing block
She’s so wants to live in Zip nine hundred , seventy seven
Six bed , eight bath with tennis court , her idea of heaven
Nate flies his cardboard sign hoping to catch a passing buck
But few want to help someone, who’s down on their luck
Dreams of once more owning , the roof over his head
He knows he badly needs a break - and that’s easier said

Chorus
One goes over, one goes under
One likes to be the first
One just wants to eat
One goes over and one goes under
Two lives passing close
Yet so far apart
Over and under, over and under

Thirty five mill tear down bought just for the dirt
A few miles away there’s a guy who’d love a clean shirt
Some just stare, some don’t care what some people lack
Gentrified and codified , they keep coming back

Chorus
One goes over, one goes under
One likes to be the first ,
One just wants to eat
One goes over and one goes under
Two lives passing close
Yet so far apart
Over and under, over and under
Over and under, over and under
