Maraca Songtext

von 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 went 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

Oh and I was blind to your design
You had it planned out all the time
(Back and forth is the way way I'm going
If you want, I could give you a ride
Drive around all night
You hang out the side
Tune me out just like radio)

Uh oh, uh oh
We went no-oh-where
Can't release the brake
Stalled and it was too late

My day was vacant
And you came to fill it in
But my whole world would be shaking
If we said what we were thinking

Oh and I was blind to your design
You had it planned out all the time
(Back and forth is the way way I'm going
If you want, I could give you a ride
Drive around all night
You hang out the side
Tune me out just like radio)

I believe you'd fall
I believe you'd fall

Oh and I was blind to your design
You had it planned out all the time
(Back and forth is the way way I'm going
If you want, I could give you a ride
Drive around all night
You hang out the side
Tune me out just like radio)

I would 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 the end?
(Drive around all night
You hang out the side
Tune me out just like radio)
