"Maraca" lyrics - SLEATER-KINNEY
Uh oh, Uh oh
We went back-a-wards
Directionally impaired
Those were your words
Oh, I was sober
But to drive I wasn't fit
And the road came up so quickly
The road came up so quick
Uh oh, Uh oh
We were side-a-ways
Past everything we ever made
Parking lot full of mistakes
My head was dizzy
But the steering wheel was square
Oh, it wouldn't take me where I wanted
Wouldn't take me anywhere
[Chorus:]
Oh, and I was blind to your design
You had it planned all the time
(Back and forth is the way way I'm going
If you want I can give you a ride
Drive around all night
You hang out the side
You tune me out just like a radio)
Uh oh, Uh oh
We went no-uh-where
Can't release the brake
Stalled and was too late
My day was vacant
And you came to fill it in
Butt my whole world would be shaken
If we said what we were then
[Bridge:]
I'd believe you'd fall
I'd believe you'd fall
[Chorus]
[Outro:]
I walk those three thousand miles to you
I'd walk them every step
But would you be there when I get there?
Will you be there 'til then end?
(Drive around all night
You hang out the side
Tune me out just like a radio)
