A Boy Needs A Bike
Not sure why this popped in my head
Then is being released from my brain
Through my fingers onto this screen
If it doesn’t make sense don’t blame me
.
But Jewel was right
.
A Boy Needs A Bike
.
For a moment thought
A boy needs parents
Perhaps, but only for so long
.
After all that is how you get here
Beyond that you are on your own
.
“A man needs a car and a boy needs a bike”
I got my first taste of freedom
Beneath the light of the moon
But if it were me I’d have the guts
To put to test those bolts and nuts
And I’d ride away so fast, so far
Ride away, so fast, so far”
.
– Jewel
.
That bike turned into a car
Which manifested into
A tractor trailer with
Eighteen to twenty-six wheels
.
Still savoring that taste of freedom
.
Writing this made me realize the one
Video game I conquered was
Atari’s “Night Driver”
Only to start over and play again
.
On to the next big thing
.
“Space Trucking”
.
– Deep Purple
.
“We had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars
Meeting all the groovey people
We’ve rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealice
We’re space truckin’ round the the stars
Come on, come on, come on let’s go Space trucking
Come on, come on, come on, Space trucking
Remember when we did the moonshot
And Pony Trekker led the way
We’d move to the Canaveral moonstop
And everynaut would dance and sway
We got music in our solar system
We’re space truckin’ round the stars
Come on, come on, come on let’s go Space trucking
Come on, come on, come on, Space trucking
The fireball that we rode was moving
But now we’ve got a new machine
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah the freaks said
Man those cats can really swing
They got music in their solar system
They’ve rocked around the Milky Way
They dance around the Borealice
They’re Space Truckin’ everyday
Come on, come on, come on let’s go Space trucking
Come on, come on, come on, Space trucking
Come on, come on, come on let’s go Space trucking
Come on, come on, come on, Space trucking
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Space trucking
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Space trucking
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Space trucking
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah”

Geez, for once, did not overexplain things
