    *** Unconfirmed ***

    Headlines, they're break your back, get ready for another daily heart attack
    Late fall, the leaves and all, they made their way a-floatin' to the ground
    Talk smack, we'll make a pact, don't just act surprised when your folks react
    Don't fret, cuz I digress, I haven't been home in a while

    Charlie, where are you now?
    You're bending over backwards just to touch the ground
    Eight whole days 'til they finally found you
    Playin' that game with a ring on the string that you have to swing until the hook kinda thing
    Never quite make it, but I know you'll keep on tryin'

    What'd ya know? That time is hardly wasted
    What'd ya know? We've still got light of day and
    If I'm comin' back to you and all is well, my friends
    We'll get to keepin' on, we'll hit the road, and we'll get right outta here

    Wednesday, that's yesterday, I witnessed some commotion on the interstate
    Planes, cars, the whole nine yards, were clogging up the highway in our town
    Bonnie, where are you now? You've barely got a dollar in your bank account
    Eight whole days 'for they finally found you
    Playin' that game with a ring on the string that you have to swing until the hook kinda thing
    Never quite make it, but I know you'll keep on tryin'

    What'd ya know? That time is hardly wasted
    What'd ya know? We've still got light of day and
    If I'm comin' back to you and all is well, my friends
    We'll get to keepin' on, we'll hit the road, and we'll get right outta here

    Charlie, where are you now?
    You're bending over backwards just to touch the ground
    Eight whole days 'for they finally found you
    Playin' that game with a ring on the string that you have to swing until the hook kinda thing
    Never quite make it, but I know you'll keep on tryin'

    What'd ya know? That time is hardly wasted
    What'd ya know? We've still got light of day and
    If I'm comin' back to you and all is well, my friends
    We'll get to keepin' on, we'll hit the road, and we'll get right outta here (x2)
