lyrics

If my car doesn’t start
I guess I’ll be staying put
it’ll be good for my pocketbook
if my car doesn’t start

If my car doesn’t start
I guess I’ll be walking around town
it’ll be good to get to know my hood
if my car doesn’t start

I should be taking the slow road
I should be going the winding way
anyway so I guess
that it’s best
if my car
finally won’t start

If my car doesn’t start
I guess I’ll be biking around
it’ll be good for my head and my ass and my heart
if my car doesn’t start

chorus

Why do I need these wheels anyway?
Why do I try to race through my days?
Can’t I just tame my pace and face
my longing for arrivals?

If my car doesn’t start
I guess I’ll be hitching a lift
it’ll be good for my loneliness
if my car doesn’t start
I should be taking the slow road
I should be going the winding way
anyway so I guess
that it’s best
if I find that my car
finally gives me a fresh start
