lyrics

We can’t go on
Driving these rotten roads
Pretending we’re good
We’ve got a bald set of tires
Smokes pouring out of the hood

We can’t keep up
Would you give me a hand here dear
I think that we’re stuck
Broken axle, leaking gasoline
It’s clear to see we’re shit out of luck

Oh all the work in the world
Couldn’t fix this epic mess
We’ve made out of ourselves
All the work in the world
Couldn’t repair this undercarriage
We’ve been beating to hell
No tow-truck, train, or carrier plane
Could pick us up out of this rut
Girl we’re trapped in the rain

We can’t be here
I haven’t seen headlights
In what feels like a year
Roads are changing names
The routes i swore i knew
They ain’t the same

Oh what a price to pay
We must have been nuts
To think we’d taken the fast lane
Looks like its up to both of us
To roll our sleeves up
Start pushing babe

Oh all the work in the world
Couldn’t fix this epic mess
We’ve made out of ourselves
All the work in the world
Couldn’t repair this undercarriage
We’ve been beating to hell
No tow-truck, train, or carrier plane
Could pick us up out of this rut
Girl we’re trapped in the rain

Any mechanic in his right mind
Might say can it
Invest in what’s reliable
Any mechanic in his right mind
Might say can it
Invest in what’s reliable
Oh but I’ve got time for fine tuning
What till you see her move
Her fire’s undeniable

Oh all the work in the world
Couldn’t fix this epic mess
We’ve made out of ourselves
All the work in the world
Couldn’t repair this undercarriage
We’ve been beating to hell
No tow-truck, train, or carrier plane
Could pick us up out of this rut
Girl we’re trapped in the rain
