I’m on the road of least resistance I’d rather give up than give in to this So promise me only one thing, would you? Just don’t ever make me promises No promises I’ve never done this before, promises, promises But I’m enjoying the illusion and the things my body says Now you see me, now you don’t, oh how well you disappear What are you running from and may I interfere? ---

Piece of shit car, I got a piece of shit car. Piece of shit car, Never gets me very far. It’s got no CD player- it only got the 8-track.
