- Driving Sideways LyricsAt least you know you were taken by a pro
I know just how you feel
She talked a perfect game deflectin' all the blame
You took the jack and changed the flat
And got behind the wheel
Now you're drivin' sideways
Taken in by the scenery
As you're propelled, along
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong
I fear she may be wrong
And you will say that you're makin' headway
And put it in overdrive
But you're mistakin' speed for gettin' what you need
And never even noticin' you never do arrive
'Cause you're drivin' sideways
If you roll down the window you'll see
You're where you don't, belong
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong
For fear she may be wrong
And you're powered by the hopeful lie
That it's just around the bend
And when this by default comes screechin' to a halt
Let's hope that you know what to do
To start it up again
Drivin' sideways, hittin' scan on the radio
So she can sing along
And she'll sit thinkin' you're gonna handle it
Until she's proven wrong
Until she's proven wrong
Until you prove her wrong
Drivin' sideways
I know just how you feel
She talked a perfect game deflectin' all the blame
You took the jack and changed the flat
And got behind the wheel
Now you're drivin' sideways
Taken in by the scenery
As you're propelled, along
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong
I fear she may be wrong
And you will say that you're makin' headway
And put it in overdrive
But you're mistakin' speed for gettin' what you need
And never even noticin' you never do arrive
'Cause you're drivin' sideways
If you roll down the window you'll see
And your companion will not help you to navigate
For fear she may be wrong
For fear she may be wrong
And you're powered by the hopeful lie
That it's just around the bend
And when this by default comes screechin' to a halt
Let's hope that you know what to do
To start it up again
Drivin' sideways, hittin' scan on the radio
So she can sing along
And she'll sit thinkin' you're gonna handle it
Until she's proven wrong
Until she's proven wrong
Until you prove her wrong
Drivin' sideways
