about

Nobody wants to cook. Everybody's in a bad mood. Get in the station wagon, we're going to the diner.

lyrics

Mama, she's home late from work
she don't wanna make dinner
Jr.'s in a funk 'cause big sister's a jerk
Tempers are starting to simmer

It's time to go out to eat
they don't want TV dinners
time to go out to eat
and then maybe later a little something sweet

Grandpa, well he's a pain in the ass
he's a tyrant in his electric wheelchair
and the late night nursing home staff
would be better off if he wasn't there

It's time to go out to eat
he don't want TV dinner
time to go out to eat
and then maybe later a little something sweet

Dimly lit screened-in porch
picnic tables, a gravel floor
soft-serve window and a citronella torch
there's a little bell that jingles
when you walk through the screen door

Welcome to the Redwood Diner

Brother, he eats breaths and sleeps basket ball
sister, she cheers from the sideline
they lost the game and their spirits fall
they don't wanna hear, "better luck next time"

It's time to go out to eat
they don't want TV dinners
time to go out to eat
and then maybe later a little something sweet

Dimly lit screened-in porch
picnic tables, a gravel floor
soft-serve window and a citronella torch
there's a little bell that jingles
when you walk through the screen door

Welcome to the Redwood DIner

Daniel Heila & Daniel Boone's Fault Eugene, Oregon

Podunk expat living in Oregon trying to remember to put the chickens in and the cats out at night. Will the woodshed ever get built? I wonder. Somewhere between family and fortune is a bit of quiet space where I get a song written now and then.
