Driving Sideways — текст песни (Aimee Mann)

At least you know

You were taken by a pro

I know just how you feel

She talked a perfect game

Deflecting all the blame

You took the jack

And changed the flat

And got behind the wheel--

Now youre

Driving sideways

Taken in by the scenery

As youre propelled along

And your companion

Will not help you to navigate

For fear she may be wrong





And you will say

That youre making headway

And put it in overdrive

But youre mistaking speed

For getting what you need

And never even noticing

You never do arrive

Cause youre

Driving sideways

If you roll down the window youll see

Youre where you dont belong

And your companion

Will not help you to navigate

For fear she may be wrong





And youre powered by

The hopeful lie

That its just around the bend

And when this, by default

Comes screeching to a halt

Lets hope that you

Know what to do

To start it up again





Driving sideways

Hitting scan on the radio

So she can sing along

And shell sit

Thinking youre going to handle it

Until shes proven wrong

Until shes proven wrong

Until you prove her wrong
