    Story Behind the Song
    This high-energy song was designed to challenge families who try to make their kids successes in every walk of life except the spiritual. Too many times we watch a kid grow up accommodating the same vices, the same habits and the same lack of virtue of the previous generation, and it is a difficult task to remind families that no matter how equipped they feel they have made their teen, there is one thing that most families forgot to do. They forgot to give their kids the critical framework for living lives of wisdom and grace.

    It reminds me of the times I have locked my keys in the car and left the headlights on. Sure, I remembered to lock the doors. I remember to do so much, but one of the main things I forgot to do. This shows up not only in our conversations, but in the priorities that we show.

    Lyrics
    ["Sammy, hurry up, we're gonna be
    late to that National Honor Society
    luncheon. Watch out! Quit looking at
    that girl and keep your eyes on the
    road. How did you get your license
    anyhow? Did you come to a complete
    stop at that stop sign? I didn't think so.
    Look at the time, Sammy, c'mon now,
    hurry..."]

    Sammy is brilliant. Sammy is a CPA.
    Sammy is remembered at a Friday
    Night party as the only one
    With something smart to say.
    Sammy's gonna tell you
    That to make it through life.
    Gotta sweat for the grades
    Buy a home and buy a wife.

    Chorus:
    Attention those of you who are
    On planet Earth with ears open.
    Those of you who are still tuned
    In for news.
    Gotta learn from these
    Surface successes who on
    Judgement day are bound to lose.
    They remembered to lock their doors.
    They remembered to lock their doors.
    They remembered to lock their doors.
    But they left their headlights on
    Yeah, they left their headlights on...

    Maggie is beautiful.
    Maggie turns a thousand heads.
    ["Ow, I hate it when she does that!"]
    Maggie is charming she makes women
    All around her look cold and dead.
    Maggie's gonna tell you
    That she always gets her man.
    But to keep your choices
    Open for a better plan.

    Chorus
