Wednesday Night

Lyrics

Out on the freeway, the cop lights are flashing Traffic ain't moving and you and me are passing Something barely lit but still kinda glowing Sitting and waiting for things to start flowing again You say the way I'm smoking's kinda faggy I say, "Well maybe you're just a little dikey." I try to show you my new tennis shoes That I paid to much for, but at least they ain't Nike This time, oh It's a Wednesday night And I ain't dead yet Some kid someplace is up to no good With his Mama's PC he thinks he's Robin Hood Stealing from the living and givin' to the dead We shoulda stuck to surface streets like you said, oh You had the tunes up loud and I think I was hearing You saying something bout all the magic disappearing Evеr since it got funded by the mеga-corporation Which is some kinda metaphor for the whole nation I think, uh huh It's a Wednesday night And I ain't dead yet Well, to tell you the truth I don't really mind it When the freeway's clogged and it gets really quiet And all you hear's the rumble of Toyotas and Fords And it seems like a good time maybe for the Lord to come You could sure use a helicopter in this town We could buzz all the buildings and then cruise downtown High above the rabble and the traffic jam Don't these people know who I am? Oh It's a Wednesday night And I ain't dead yet We've moved a quarter mile in forty-five minutes I wish this car had a frigerator in it Maybe it's an accident, maybe it's a bust Maybe it's Canada or Mexico taking us over When it's you and me against the world ya gotta be strong Or at least until something better comes along I found something jammed in the ashtray, if You can find us a match, we can make like Jimmy Cliff I used to feel guilty and like I had to grovel Just because I ain't wrote the great American novel But I did fill out the extended warranty In the glove department, we're covered till Saturday Oh It's a Wednesday night And I ain't dead yet Oh It's a Wednesday night And I ain't dead yet Oh It's a Wednesday night And I ain't dead yet
