Amanda Palmer
Have to Drive
[Chorus]
I have to drive
I have my reasons, deer
It's cold outside
I hate the seasons here
[Verse 1]
I suffer mornings most of all
I feel so powerless and small
By 10 o'clock I'm back in bed
Fighting the jury in my head
[Chorus]
We learn to drive
It's only natural, deer
We drive all night
We haven't slept in years
[Verse 2]
We suffer mornings most of all
We saw you lying in the road
We tried to dig a decent grave
But it's still no way to behave
[Bridge]
It is a delicate position
Spin the bottle, pick the victim
Catch a tiger, switch directions
If he hollers, break his ankles to protect him
[Chorus]
We'll have to drive
They're getting closer
Just get inside
It's almost over
[Bridge]
We will save your brothers
We will save your cousins
We will drive them
Far away from streets and lights
From all signs of mad mankind
[Verse 3]
We suffer mornings most of all
Wake up all bleary-eyed and sore
Forgetting everything we saw
[Outro]
I'll meet you in an hour
At the car
