Driving in England
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some people get so bored
they start turnin' into cannibals
eat each others hearts out
like a sacrifice of animals
deep freeze their own souls
shut down their brains
i think the only way to go
is against the grain
(i was) driving in england
down the santa ana freeway
somebody's screaming out
you're going down the wrong way!
they wanna believe the worst
but do they believe in anything?
shoot their own wounded
sacrifice their offspring
don't you get too cynical
they'll put you on a cross
some leaders are tyrannical
and everyone's a boss
(i was) driving in england
down the santa ana freeway
somebody's screaming out
you're going down the wrong way!
roadblock on the road to glory
gridlock on the golden highway
i'll stop at nothing to get to you
some people get so bored
they start turnin' into cannibals
eat each others hearts out
it's like a sacrifice of animals
deep freeze their own souls
shut down their brains
i think the only way to go
is against the grain
(let's go) driving in england
down the santa ana freeway
somebody's screaming out
you're going down the wrong way!
big surprise we're still alive
