about

owning what i am frequently called i guess

lyrics

Washing your car with my eyes
Washing your car with my eyes
Dusty and fuming
This things gone to ruin somehow

I do not own a car
I cannot get too far
My friends got me checked
Bumming rides like cigarettes

Backseat drivers do
Some hard work too
Keeping us alive
At least I’ve tried

Pushing your junk to the side
It comes along for the ride
Coffee mugs and blankets
A sheet metal picnic basket

Ergo ergonomic style
These tires spinning a while
Leather seats they burn me
I prefer my fabric on the cheap

Had the nav reset
Playlist be perfect
You missed the exit
Too bad I’m a 6
Backseat drivers do
Enough work for two
Boundaries aren’t so moot
When it’s my commute

Washing your car with my eyes
This baby drinks gas for miles
Hey take this next left
This traffic is a massive pest

The engine makes a weird sound
The mileage is profound
Self aware in clunkers
Get me to the junker
AC hardly working
Fever dream encroaching

Our words exhausted
Couldn’t make the whole trip
Backseat drivers do
More work than you
