Survival Car

Don't you wanna ride in my
Survival car
We can take the long way home
Through Central Park
Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm going where the road ain't there
And only riding on the path we made
to Union Square
Doing like the young folks do
In west coast towns
Plowing like a banshee through
The overground
Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm going where the road won't dare
And only riding on the path we made
to Union Square
Everybody hit the ground
I think I might have missed my calling
Everybody turn around
The light's about to change
You better stand aside
Why you wanna walk
Don't you want to ride ride ride ride
Don't you wanna ride in my
Survival car
We can take the long way home
Through Central Park
Funny how the ground can find my wheels
I'm going where the road ain't there
And only riding on the path we made
to Union Square
