Songtexte Gridlock - 24-Bit Digitally Remastered 02 - Warren Zevon
It′s 5: 00 P.M. on a weekday, friend
There's one of me and two million of them
The whistle blows and the factories close
There′s a million more commuters on the access roads
The brake lights flash--there's an RV crashed
I'm in the passing lane going nowhere fast
The traffic crawls and the engine stalls
I′m stuck on the edge of the urban sprawl
Gridlock
Up ahead
There′s a line of cars as far as I can see
Gridlock
Goin' nowhere
Roll down the window, let me scream
Oh yeah, ain′t it a shame
We're all jammed up at the interchange
The paramedics and the CHP
Wait impatiently for catastrophes
I′m spending half my days like this
I might as well be working on the midnight shift
The radio's tuned to the traffic news
And everybody′s choking on monoxide fumes
Gridlock
Up ahead
There's a line of cars as far as I can see
Gridlock
Goin' nowhere
Roll down the window, let me scream
I can close my eyes and dream
I can close my eyes and dream
I can close my eyes and dream
It′s 5: 00PM on a weekday, friend
I′m going home but I don't know when
I hate this traffic and I hate this town
Gotta honk my horn, try to get around
I feel like going on a killing spree
Tomorrow I′m going on the RTD
The traffic crawls and the engine stalls
I'm stuck on the edge of the urban sprawl
Gridlock
Up ahead
There′s a line of cars as far as I can see
Gridlock
Goin' nowhere
Roll down the window, let me scream
I can close my eyes and dream
