Asleep At The Wheel lyrics

Do you ever stop to count all the invitationsAt the end of the day when it comes down to one decisionOf dead beat girls and freaks at a peoples conventionAll these sugars with no vitamin sensationDo you ever stop to look over old relationsOr look to the belly of another one’s emotionsSomeone young in the winds of a revolutionTrying to save his face in the evolutionAsleep at the wheelNo windshieldBut you know that the streetsHere don’t changeHe’s kept alive in the chain of mental starvationBone rail skinny, only feeding off frustrationUnlike you who seem bred from corruptionFeeding off the plates of an ununited nationAsleep at the wheelNo windshieldBut you know that the streetsHere don’t changeWith a lover in the street whose waiting to make a connectionTo be the mother to the soul of your next abortionShe’ll steal your money with the eyes of a baby’s complexionThen she’ll laugh at you and your sexual inventionSmelling like a rose, in the flowers of devotionDevoted the heat of a spotlight in motionWith a face full of mud even though you were only jokingAs if you really understood the value of isolationAsleep at the wheelNo windshieldBut you know that the streetsHere don’t changeYour tongue so fast like a freight train coming on rollin’Every smile you give’s just to keep your mouth from clothin’Every engine burns as a sign of the explosionLocked in neutral your engines are brokenLike candle wax that sun melts into the oceanLike the moon that lights the tracks of the old train stationYou can color in the lines of mother earth’s addictionsAnd not hold a gun in the face of the earth’s abductionAsleep at the wheelNo windshieldBut you know that the streetsHere don’t change
