River of Brakelights

We might be in for a late night Stuck in a lava flow of brake lights I can hear a rattling bass drum driving back to where it came from Sit back I shop therefore I am the cause Protect me from what I was Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it Timing is everything, timing is everything Timing is everything, timing is everything Timing is everything, timing is everything I'm at your feet where critters meet Who should be asleep and not crossing roads or highways In the afterlife of super cities, rapidly devouring its outskirts It's neon octopus arms redecorating late at night Robot camp for kids who hate sports Mothers crying at the airport Finding the dreams you left behind to do Waving goodbye your young heart cries for you Sit back You're finding it hard to get very far But we were born waiting in line Grabbing the future by the eyes Getting the hang of it, getting the hang of it Timing is everything, timing is everything Getting the hang of it, timing is everything Getting the hang of it, timing is everything Timing the hang of it, getting is everything Getting the timing of everything hanging is Hanging the getting of timing the everything Like batteries we die, like rivers we dry We fuel and recharge, that's humans and cars My fun, my sun, be my homework done Where did you go, you were my ride home Is that what we want? Is everything shot? Is that what you ask for? 'Cause that's what we got Nothing stands still Nothing stands still
