Time's Up, Brad

Maggie & Josh, friends from the sandbox, nothing could keep ‘em apart

catching butterflies on Maggie’s farm, cruising gravel roads in Josh’s car

Josh had a secret no one knew, Maggie said I’ll never tell

She smiled as he told her of his truth on the edge of the wishing well

Josh said I gotta get out of this town, when we graduate I’m gone

They swore to make the most of the time they had, not 3 weeks later Maggie found Brad

He seemed alright but soon enough red flags started to fly

One day Josh picked up her for school and she had a bruise on her left eye

Things went from bad to urgent

Maggie called with an emergency

Brad had pulled a gun on her she needed help immediately

When Josh got to her house, Brad had left in a rage

And they knew the clock was ticking

So like Wanda & Marianne, they hatched a plan

Put pills in his bourbon, cut the breaks to his suburban

It was all black and white, so they made sure this would be the last night

He ever had, times up Brad

Josh left a bottle of Jack half empty in the back of Brad’s wrecked truck

Now Brad has a new pair of cement shoes and his picture on the cover of the local news

They drove his body miles away to a place no one would find

The paper called him a man on the run and they had an air tight alibi

The years drifted all away

Soon everyone forgot his name

The two moved to Tennessee became stars in the Nashville scene

No regretful thoughts

Yo Brad deserved just what he got

And the world will keep on spinning

So like Wanda and Marianne

They hatched a plan

Put pills in his bourbon, cut the breaks to his suburban

It was all black and white, so they made sure this would be the last night

He ever had, times up Brad
