Song | Somewhere Else to Be |
Artist | The Handsome Family |
Album | Last Days of Wonder |
作词 : Sparks, Sparks | |
I didn't wrap my head in roses | |
I didn't run screaming down the street | |
I didn't drive off jagged cliffs | |
Or dive in roaring seas | |
I broke no cage door open | |
I set no horses free | |
The day the girl at the drive-thru window | |
Softly smiled at me | |
Actually, I did nothing | |
As she handed me a large ice tea | |
An extra packet of ketchup | |
A small bag of onion rings | |
I didn't even smile back at her | |
I just pulled into the street | |
Searching my rear view mirror | |
To catch her eyes on me | |
'Cause there were cars behind me | |
And I had somewhere else to be | |
Down the street I saw an old man | |
Eating as he drove | |
Running over empty cans | |
Lying in the road | |
But the billboards near the highway | |
Were full of singing birds | |
And all the trees were blooming green | |
In their little squares of dirt | |
Every dog chained in every yard | |
Was howling with me | |
But I didn't even smile back at her | |
I just pulled into the street | |
'Cause there were cars behind me | |
And I had somewhere else to be |
