Lyrics
You're driving me crazy
You're making me blue
You're on another planet
and there's nothing I can do
Lord this can't be my time
Cuz I don't wanna die with you
Not today not now
Not EVER!
Hey there mister
your signals must be broke
Unless they're really working
and you're playing some kinda joke
Well I don't find this funny
I feel inclined to provoke
But what do I care hell
I'm psychic
Chorus
Hey there lady
with that cell phone in your ear
You got one hand on the steering wheel
and another shifting gears
I'm sure there's one more somewhere else
And this is what I fear
Hey don't shake my hand
even if you're important
Chorus
Tailgater masturbator
You drive so bizarre
You're egos in your carburetor
Invested in your car
With your nose up so high
and your head stuffed so far
up my tail-pipe
you must be exhausted!
You're driving 'round the bend
You're driving me to the brink
You're driving me up the wall
Cuz you can't drive and think
You're driving me insane ya you're driving me to drink
Guess I should just stay off the road altogether
