Heavy Metal Kidz Heavy Metal Kids in the sunshine Heavy Metal Kidz on the beach Heavy Metal Kidz are holding hands, it makes me feel so sweet Heavy Metal Kidz at the disco shuffling their feet Leather jackets clang, sweaty and in pain they give in to their needs Cause they got a darkness inside that they don’t know how to deal with so they play their records loud and practice their instruments now the heavy metal kids are staring at me they see me with my pen they’re pulling me into the bathroom they’re making me one of them I’m told stories of witches and wizards moose, bear and deer I’m drawing a pentagram on my jean jacket they’re offering me a beer Now I got a darkness inside that I don’t know how to deal with so I play my records loud and practice my instrument I’m a heavy metal kid (heavy metal Kid) I’m a heavy metal kid (heavy metal Kid) I don’t know how it happened, but I’m glad that it did.

As we walked the Olympic forest we stepped in mud, It filled our shoes We slept in meadows,We ate good food We held a toad, hiked thirty miles Got some blisters, on our toes The bugs were biting, but we were smiling Ceder trees, covered in moss blocked our path, that didn't stop us we pushed on into alpine meadows Sat in the grass, and pumped lots of water Walked over rocks, At Elip creek huckleberries lined our path … Spiders crawled on our shoulders Some were fluorescent, some were brown their webs twinkled in the sunlight the Quinalt river was our guide the packs were heavy, with every stride we walked onwards to our campsites Pooped in the woods, learned new card games red 7, hearts and spades ate lots of couscous along the way Aidan saw airplanes, one was supersonic, Syd did a card trick it didn't work we saw mushrooms on dead trees Graciela lost her bandanna and McKenna ran after it Emma's allergic to all beans
