I drive down the road
I see a fallen tree
I drive on

I turn the corner
Oops. Its a one way
I turn around and
I drive on

I drive over broken glass
The right rear tire pops like a balloon I once had as a child
This saddens me
I drive on

A jehova's witness runs out in front of the car
He splatters all over the windshield
Did I say jehova's witness? I meant a cricket
I drive on

A cop pulls me over
I offer him a beer
He hauls me away in a none too friendly manner
But I drive on

All of a sudden I wake up confused
I'm in my room and my mom is shaking me, yelling at me to get my good for nothing ass out of bed and eat my oatmeal and brush my teeth and get ready for school...
And I drive on
