Columbus from City Jams by Dr. Pants

WE’RE ON OUR WAY TO A TOWN CALLED COLUMBUS UP IN OHIO
THE GPS TOLD US WHERE TO TURN, BUT IT TURNS OUT THE EXIT’S CLOSED
WE TRY TO FIND AN ALTERNATE ROUTE, BUT WE END UP IN THE SAME PLACE
WE’RE LATE FOR THE INTERVIEW BECAUSE OF BAD DIRECTIONS FROM SPACE

WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN GET THERE
WE BELIEVE THAT WE’LL ARRIVE
SAMANTHA SAYS THAT WE CAN’T GO THAT WAY
BUT WE KNOW IT’S A BUNCH OF LIES

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS WAS AN EXPLORER FROM AN ISLAND NEAR ITALY
HE SAID YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO THROUGH ARABIA TO TRADE IN THE INDIES
THE QUEEN OF SPAIN LAID HER MONEY DOWN AND HE SET OFF ON HIS WAY
TURNS OUT HE WASN’T THAT SMART BUT DISCOVERED AMERICA ANYWAY

WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN GET THERE
WE BELIEVE THAT WE’LL ARRIVE
TRUTH IS THE EARTH IS MUCH BIGGER
BUT COLUMBUS THOUGHT IT WAS A LIE

CHRIS COLUMBUS WAS A WRITER/DIRECTOR FROM OUT IN HOLLYWOOD
HE WROTE A SCRIPT AND HE CALLED IT “THE GOONIES” AND HE KNEW IT WAS REALLY GOOD
IT WAS ABOUT A BAND OF KIDS SEARCHING FOR A PIRATE SHIP
THE OLDER KIDS SAID, “HEY, IT’S TOO DANGEROUS” BUT THEY DIDN’T GIVE A RIP

WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN GET THERE
WE BELIEVE THAT WE’LL ARRIVE
BRAND AND STEPH SAY WE’RE GONNA GET KILLED
BUT WE KNOW IT’S A BUNCH OF LIES

WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN GET THERE
WE BELIEVE THAT WE’LL ARRIVE
ALL OUR PARENTS SAY WE’RE GONNA GET KILLED
BUT WE KNOW IT’S A BUNCH OF LIES

WE BELIEVE THAT WE CAN GET THERE
WE BELIEVE THAT WE’LL ARRIVE
THE FRATELLIS ARE GONNA TRY AND KILL US
BUT WE KNOW THAT WE’LL SURVIVE
