| Lyrics: | Get out of bed dad, did you hear the bell You must still be dreaming, can't you tell In a minute you'll be gone and out the door Finish up your coffee and take some more You kinda thought you had the time And now it's gone Time to face the music And sing along I always knew you'd be ok And always find a way I never thought you'd spend your life In a one act play The dream is over, was it ever here You spend your whole life living in a world of fear You never took the chances that you had to take Never wound up searching for that lucky break You kinda thought you had the time And now it's gone Time to face the music And sing along I always knew you'd be ok And always find a way I never thought you'd spend your life In a one act play You kinda thought you had the time But now it's gone Time to face the mirror |

Zoo Pilot is a newly formed indie rock band based in Austin, TX. Comprised of former members of Sleep Station (Eyeball Records), Zoo Pilot combines the classic sounds of bands like the Beatles, Kinks and Zombies with modern indie-rock sensibilities to create a unique, timeless sound.
With Brad Paxton handling vocals and guitar and Josh Nichols on bass and drums, the group looks forward to bringing their diverse sound and often left-of-center lyrical themes to the many music fans of Austin and beyond.
They have lent their compositional and production talents to a number of television shows, including CBS's Cold Case, American Idol Rewind and the Showtime series Shameless. They record and mix their songs at Brad's home studio in South Austin.
