The greasers had a rumble in the furthest edge of town Now Johnny and the boys bet their money they would take the crown Push it came to shove a winner rose above Running in the street they all had enough Motor City Mama turned the boys into silly fools Motor City Mama is the queen of the neighborhood She’s always standing up and she does it for the greater good She’s the leader of the pack she’s got herself a knack Rock ‘n’ rollin’ woman she’s a cracker jack Motor City Mama keeps the boys standing in a line Motor City Mama She’s in a rush Motor City Mama She’s burning up Motor City Mama I’d love to love Motor City Mama A night is never just enough Motor City Mama is the queen of the neighborhood She’s always standing up and she does it for the greater good She’s the leader of the pack she’s got herself a knack Rock ‘n’ rollin’ woman she’s a cracker jack Motor City Mama keeps the boys standing in a line Motor City Mama She’s in a rush Motor City Mama She’s burning up Motor City Mama I’d love to love Motor City Mama A night is never just enough Motor City Mama ma ma ma ma Motor City Mama ma ma ma ma Motor City Mama ma ma ma ma ma ma Motor City Mama

Known you for a long time darling You were by my side, watching the tide The summer breeze was blowing All around the sandy shore Surely deep in the coming moonlight Along the coast and the pines We'll sing sweet songs of love and harmony Strolling down the boardwalk darling In the afternoon, drifting with dunes You can hear the sound of crashing waves into the night The early evening light is dawning As music sails all abroad Time to sing songs of love and harmony Gazing out at the sea of shining light Your eyes glimmer brightly through the night A new day dawns above us darling The sunrise glowed, as time it froze The ocean bed arose with life As creatures loomed around A gentle breeze blows through the air As music lingered there We’ll sing sweet songs of love and harmony A new day dawns above us darling The sunrise glowed, as time it froze The ocean bed arose with life As creatures loomed around A gentle breeze blows through the air As music lingered there We’ll sing sweet songs of love and harmony

Dandelion 04:03
I was just a banker She worked and sold flowers That’s how I met my love Oh oh oh She showed me begonias Said she was a loner How do I explain my love Oh oh oh Then she looked at me with wide open eyes Blue as the night starry as skies Oh I know why this feeling of light Is festering me I’ve made up my mind oh darling I’ll find The right words to say I’ll try and I’ll try Dandelion I waited till morning Knew you were performing There I could confess my love Oh oh oh I bought you some roses Hoping that you’d notice How much I care my love Oh oh oh Then you looked at me with wide open eyes Blue as the night starry as skies Oh I know why this feeling of light Is festering me I’ve made up my mind oh darling I’ll find The right words to say I’ll try and I’ll try Dandelion She’s The One She’s The One Then she looked at me with wide open eyes Blue as the night starry as skies Oh I know why this feeling of light Is festering me I’ve made up my mind oh darling I’ll find The right words to say I’ll try and I’ll try Dandelion Dandelion Dandelion

You say it’s this or that I say I’ll leave you flat I know that I see you But do you see me? I may be more or less Some kind of angry mess I know that I see you But do you see me? Look inside of your heart Find a very special part Maybe in that place You can see my face But let me tell you now There’s things I won’t allow I know that I see you But You Don’t See Me! Look inside of your heart Find a very special part Maybe in that place You can see my face But let me tell you now There’s things I won’t allow I know that I see you But You Don’t See Me!

about

"One of the more enjoyable parts of the New Jersey experience is never being too far from a traditional diner. My neighborhood diner, The Broadway Diner, has played a significant part in my life, witnessing such major milestones as my parents' engagement and my baptism party. Today, it continues to host enjoyable dinners I share with my best friend, bandmates, and family. Like a daily specials menu, BreakTime's 'Specials' is our seasonal assortment of the surf rock, power pop, and merseybeat that define the BreakTime sound. Immerse yourself in an EP thoroughly seasoned with vocal harmony in a jangle reduction!" ~ Sean Manuel
