Rubber Tires Lyrics

Turn me back around

I'm sick of driving the same side of town

And always sporting this frown

It's enough to drive a stick in the ground

And call me on my phone

I'm sick of hearing the same busy tone

And always being alone

It's enough to shake me to my bones

Give me some confirmation

Some sort of sign that you see me at all

'Cause when you leave me waiting

I can get reduced to a crawl

When I lose my composure I can fray like a wire

The birds in the morning drive me wild

And all this commotion like the school is on fire

The lack of devotion we require

I might as well start these rubber tires

Just one moment please

I didn't ask you to drop to your knees

Just need a bit of relief

Like a drink to calm this OCD

This conversation is sinking

Drinking doesn't stifle my mind

But if I could shrink to a pinky

Then maybe I could hide for a time

When I lose my composure I can fray like a wire

The birds in the morning drive me wild

And all this commotion like the school is on fire

The lack of devotion we require

I might as well start these rubber tires

You can watch it, but I pray you'll stay away

Turn me back around

I'm sick of driving the same side of town
