about

Our summertime ode to Dreamland.

lyrics

Took my baby to the freak bar
and we geeked out til it hurt
Saw this girl swallow two whole swords
and we both bought matching shirts

If thrills and chills are what you're after
I can tell you the destination
Just ride the Q to Stillwell Avenue and have a
Coney Island Vacation

There's a guy trapping crabs with a laundry basket
way out at the end of the pier
All the benches have gum all over the bottom
You can bring your own beer

You know their hot dog eating contest
is the best in the fuckin nation
Get an alien cup at Margarita Island
on your Coney Island Vacation

Greeted by the smell of a Swisher Sweet
you can light up anywhere that you wanna
You can take your lover to a baseball game
and fool around in the Spook-O-Rama

If thrills and chills are what you're after
I can tell you the destination
Just ride the Q to Stillwell Avenue and have a
Coney Island Vacation
