about

According to Nick Leet...

I went back in the memory bank when I wrote this one. It's about an ex-girlfriend I had when I first moved to MPLS. She asked me out one day in the elevator at work. It started so well...

I love Chad Wheeling's "Marty McFly" guitar solo at the end. This song is still a staple in our live shows.

lyrics

Living in your busted broken walls
Living like you'll never run out of time
Meet me in the elevator
said I'd call, I said see you later
down on Rhode Island Avenue

Mad as hell I can't take no more
I got one foot out and you know I've got one more

Every time you open your mouth
I'm never quite sure what's gonna come out
Still you go on anyway
When you're lonely you do stupid things
and sometimes you're surprised at what the morning will bring
Down on Rhode Island Avenue

Wasting all my time you know it's true
Wasting all my time just waiting for you
Meet me in the elevator
said I'd call, I said see you later
down on Rhode Island Avenue
