Oh, Rapid Roy, that stock car boy

He too much to believe

You know he always got an extra pack of cigarettes

Rolled up in his t-shirt sleeve

Good stuff, Maynard.
Operator is one of the greatest broken heart songs ever. You can feel that guys pain in Croce's words.
There's something in my eyes, you know it happens every time

I think about the love I thought would save me
It's like a gut punch.

"Tomorrow's a dream away; today has turned to dust/Your silver tongue has turned to clay, and your golden rule to rust..."

One of the greatest lines ever.
