going once
  going twice
  sold to the girl who ignored all the good advice
  of all the people who knew better
  she just stood there
  on the front porch
  waiting for her (will) to come and get her
  she was packed
  she had a suitcase
  full of noble intentions
  she had a (map)
  and a staight face
  hell bent on reinvention
  and she was ready for a long day
  she was in it for it (only)
  and they said "you think that you don't need us
  but you're not going to get far
  all your big ideas are suckers
  none of them work
  none of them have cars"
  but she was not deterred
  it was like she hadn't heard a word
  and just then a primer grey el camino
  pulled up to the curb
    going once
  going twice
  down the road less taken
  through the coffee
  and the wd40
  and the gasoline
  and the beer
  there was always someone there to say
  why don't you just stay
  and hang your hat
  here
    but she was packed
  she had a suitcase
  full of fumbles and near misses
  she was swinging through a jungle
  of last calls and first kisses
  and she was learning
  about please
  about hugh/cute? humilities
  and then one day she looked around her
  and everything up till then was showing
  and she wondered how did i get here
  without even knowing where i was going
  and now there's no getting out of this
  and there's no going back
  and it all seems so odd sometimes
  and the odds all seemed stacked
    going once
  going twice
  sold to the girl
  who ignored all the (good) advice
  of all the people who knew better (for better or for worse)
  of all the people who knew worse
  yeah her will was her chaufFer
  yeah her will was her curse
    she was packed
  she had a suitcase
  she had a map
  and a straight face
  she was ready for the lonely
  she was in it forever
  she was in it forever
  she was in it
  she was in it ...........
