Donnie never worked a day
he's 40 years this spring,
says the longer that you don't
the harder it is to begin
Arts and crafts he never got
with people he's quiet and shy
numbers make his head explode
and sales he won't even try
Maybe he's just too lazy
Maybe he thinks it's too hard
Donnie, enough with the "maybe"s
sometimes, you just gotta start
Davy ditched his school at 12
to work doing dishes at night
Quickly rose to kitchen hand
learning to cook just right
Got on a boat, got work as a chef,
got to see the world,
got back home but got no friends
now, all he wants is a girl
Maybe he's just too restless
jumping from town to town
Davy, no man is an island
sometimes, you gotta slow down
Donnie & Davy, characters in their own little movies
playing just for them
but I've got front-row seats and want my happy end
Every now and then I find
Donnie & Davy on my mind
Squint my eyes and try to see
the road laid out in front of me
I hope that theirs align with mine
and that we'll meet from time to time
but no matter what will be
Donnie & Davy, you're part of me
