    A slow, dreamy pop song written by Henry. It was engineered by Adam Reich. It's popular among the fans.

    Story Behind the Song
    It was written a few weeks before Thanksgiving 2000. Henry wrote it in a back room, looking out the window. He recorded on a minicasette recorder and played it for some friends who seemed uninterested. When he played it for John he loved it and it became part of their repitoire. There was an original version, but this second one came out much better.

    Lyrics
    I went up to the top of the shed
    With a guitar and a couple of friends
    And a song stuck in my head
    We had peanut butter and bread

    We had fun sitting on the tar
    Playing our acoustic guitars
    For all the passing cars
    We felt like rockstars

    We decided to have some fun
    So we borrowed my father's gun
    And fired a shot in the air
    And all the women were scared
    All the women were scared
