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 you're
Driving sideways taken in by the scenery
As you're propelled along
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong
For fear she may be wrong
And you will say that you're making headway
And put it in over drive
But you're mistaking speed
For getting what you need
And never even noticing you never do arrive cause you're
Driving sideways if you roll down the window you'll see
You're where you don't belong
And your companion will not help you to navigate
for fear she may be wrong
For fear she may be wrong
And you're powered by the hopeful lie
That it's just around the bend
And when this, by default
Comes screeching to a halt
Let's 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 she'll sit thinking you're going to handle it
Until she's proven wrong
Until she's proven wrong
Until you prove her wrong
Driving sideways
