Switchfoot
Company Car

[Verse 1]
Mike was right when he said I'd put up a fight to be someone
A fight to be me
But see now I'm down
Under the pavement of capital hills and lowercase people
As time rolls by, my dreams have become that which is attainable
Not what I'm looking for

[Chorus]
I've got the company car
I'm the one swinging at two below par
Yeah, I've become one with the ones that I've never believed in
But I've got the company car

[Verse 2]
Hey, I'm the king of things I've always despised
I'm the ginger-bread man who got eaten alive
I'm half-baked, I'm fake
But see I got hotels on Park Place and Boardwalk
And two hundred bucks
I pass "Go"
But, oh, life's taken its toll
Have I won Monopoly to forfeit my soul?

[Chorus]
But see, I've got the company car
I'm the one swinging at two below par
Yeah, I've become one with the ones that I've never believed in
But I've got the company car, yeah
[Bridge]
All the kings horses at the foot of the wall
They're taking pictures of the man who's lost all of his masks of pretension
He's got two faces left
His is the one that he hides on the left, behind that smile
Hiding tears and fear that burns like an engine
It drives him away from the ones that he loves

[Verse 3]
Mike was right
Hey, Mike, we're one and the same
We're the faceless combatants in the loneliest game
Ah, but say, I'll wave as I'm driving by
With that smirk in my eye
Yelling "Hey! I'm something man, check me out!"

[Chorus]
I've got the company car
I'm the one swinging at two below par
Yeah, I've become one with the ones that I've never believed in
But I've got the company car (I've got the company car)
Yeah, check me out
I've got the company car (I've got the company car)
Yeah, check me out
I've got the company car (I've got the company car)
Yeah
