lyrics

It was some time in the 90s
We were all on tour

We had just played a couple of big shows
We were feeling bored

Got a few days off before the next show
Decided to explore

Didn't know we were looking for
All we knew was that we
Needed something more
So we headed out

Into the wild
To find ourselves
Something new

Into the wild
And there in the distance
Was an ancient school

It was sometime in the 90s
Headed back through that same town

We had just played a couple of big shows
We were wondering if that school was still there?
We decided to find out

Into the wild
We went out
In search of that school

Into the wild
To discover something else
Something cool
It was an ancient school

And there we found
The secret to life
It was an ancient school
And there we found
The secret to life

Every classroom had decorations for different types of lessons--math and science; reading and writing. We explored the ancient school and all of its desolate hallways that were crumbling. We were looking around, looking at how nature had taken its place. Enveloping the school in green and brown. But at the end of the hall, there was another room on the right. When we went inside there---well, it's kinda hard to describe. And maybe I'll never be able to? But in that room, we became Wyld Katz.
