lyrics

Got to lose this traffic quick
Or lose my mind
Too many close encounters
With the flat earth kind
Everybody's talking
Competing radios
May be new in the city
But I know the routes to go
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Or slowly lose it

Make-a-fast-buck merchant men
Words are flying out like flak
Trying to play me as a fool
A joker in the pack
'Give your gums a rest
Your head is full of toys
May be new in the city
But I'm wise to all your ploys'
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Or slowly lose it

It's hard for the honest people
To get from here to there
The path is slim and crooked
And it leads to who knows where

Moving in a straight line
Stops me getting weird
Down with the natural kind
I've grown a Beach Boy beard
Not more than I can handle
No feelings of forebode
May be new in the city
But I'm already in stealth mode
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Or slowly lose it
Got to lose this traffic quickly
Or slowly lose it
