Started playing guitar when I was 13
My only dream was to get in the scene
Went to Berklee college dropped out really quick
Brad called me and said hey Neil this new scene is really sick
Why don't you come home as soon as you can
Maybe get a part time job and work on the band
My old man signed the lease to the Econoline van
We'll find ourselves drummer and execute the plan
We'll eliminate the options and never ever look back
We got to play the parties in the art school scene
Downtown was really happening back in the early 80s
We joined with Mo Da Mu stands for modern dance music
And music's what we do so it was natural to choose it
We put out an EP and the rest they say is history
It's nice to know your options are behind you
It's nice to know there's nothing else you can do
It's nice to know, it's nice to know
Your options are behind you
Now all these years later we're still in the scene
Brad and I are making it we're where we want to be
There's been some ups and downs you better believe
To choose a life and music there's never a guarantee
I remember one day in Regina playing a show in the bar
And up the road was Blue Rodeo so we popped and said hello
And alone in the dressing room Keelor playing the Blues
And I told him other than music there's no job I could do
He looked at me and mused it's good to know your options are behind you
It's nice to know your options are behind you
It's nice to know there's nothing else you can do
It's nice to know you don't need to choose
Your options are behind you
It's nice to know your options are behind you
It's nice to know there's nothing else you can do
It's nice to know you don't need to choose
Your options are behind you
Nice to know
It's nice to know your options are behind you
Nice to know
Nice to know
Nice to know
It's nice to know
