I have to drive
|
I have my reasons, dear
|
It's cold outside
|
I hate the seasons here
|
|
I suffer mornings most of all
|
I feel so powerless and small
|
By 10 o'clock I'm back in bed
|
Fighting the jury in my head
|
|
We learn to drive
|
It's only natural, dear
|
We drive all night
|
We haven't slept in years
|
|
We suffer mornings most of all
|
We saw you lying in the road
|
We tried to dig a decent grave
|
But it's still no way to behave
|
|
It is a delicate position
|
Spin the bottle, pick the victim
|
Catch a tiger, switch directions
|
If he hollers, break his ankles to protect him
|
|
We'll have to drive
|
They're getting closer
|
Just get inside
|
It's almost over
|
|
We will save your brothers
|
We will save your cousins
|
We will drive them
|
Far away from streets and signs
|
From all signs of mad mankind
|
|
We suffer mornings most of all
|
Wake up all bleary-eyed and sore
|
Forgetting everything we saw
|
|
[Whispered:]
|
I'll meet you in an hour
|
At the car
|
