Figure 1 - Alta Vista Lyrics

We smashed the lights at Hillcrest last night
At the end of a stumble from Pump down Smyth
We've chosen hangovers once again
But that won't stop us on our two day bend
'Cause the KO crews got nothing to do
And fall is calling and winter too
No nothing good can ever last
But around here those good things are always coming back

Alta Vista, its home to me
Alta Vista, its memories
I'm gonna miss you, eventually
But 'til then Alta Vista, it means family

I heard you paid off your student debt
And that there was a nice boy you had met
Well lets go out Wednesday to celebrate
I've recovered enough from last time that I'll tempt fate
Come on work the nightshift, be my wing man
You know I need a helping hand
I've stricken out and its getting late
But your sister's in town and she's looking great

Alta Vista, its home to me
Alta Vista, its memories
I'm gonna miss you, eventually
But 'til then Alta Vista, it means family

You had my back when I was strung along
Told her cut the shit it's gone on too long
I'd been knocked down fallen into a rut
Then you opened a door that I had closed shut
You knew them and I knew you
You gave that stamp good friend approved
I've gotten more than I could ever ask
And I just hope what I've taken I've given back

Alta Vista, its home to me
Alta Vista, its memories
I'm gonna miss you, eventually
But 'til then Alta Vista, it means family
