Word Traffic (from the album Mandala)
I’ve got plains trains and automobiles
Got a fast flying motion, got no time to kill… oh oh
I’ve got a fast ticking woman, she’s made of steel
Gotta lot of grease lightning but I’m spinning my wheels… oh oh yeah
CHORUS
Traffic makes me sick – gonna heartattack. This guy in this Chevy really needs a smack
Guess I’ll have to use my head to find a better way home instead.
There’s a lotta people out there in my way
Trying to cut loose – got something to say… oh oh
There’s one on the soapbox now
Gotta million words a minute and he don’t know how to think.
He don’t know how to think.
CHORUS
Traffic makes me sick, gonna heartattack – that politician really needs a crack
Now I want to get back home where the truth is spoken and the facts are known… oh oh.
SOLO
BRIDGE
It’s the same thing I always hear
Too many buttons to push, too many people fear
It’s the same thing I always see
Too many on the scene oh oh, yeah
It’s driving people crazy, drivin’ them wild
Gotta find a new way to keep up with the style, oh oh
Forget the way I look and the way I sound
Gonna pick up my friends and break it on down, oh oh, yeah
CHORUS
Traffic makes me sick – gonna heartattack. This guy in this Pinto really needs a kick
Guess I’ll have to use my head to find a better way home instead.
Now I want to get back home where the truth is spoken and the facts are known.
