Gridlock Lyrics

It's 5:00 p.m. on a weekday, friend
There's one of me and two million of them
The whistle blows and the factories close
There's a million more commuters on the access roadsThe brake lights flash, there's a RV crashed
I'm in the passing lane going nowhere fast
The traffic crawls and the engine stalls
I'm stuck on the edge of the urban sprawlGridlock, up ahead
There's a line of cars as far as I can see
Gridlock, goin' nowhere
Roll down the window, let me screamOh yeah, ain't it a shame
We're all jammed up at the interchange
The paramedics and the CHP
Wait impatiently for catastrophesI'm spending half my days like this
I might as well be working on the midnight shift
The radio's tuned to the traffic news
And everybody's choking on monoxide fumesGridlock, up ahead
There's a line of cars as far as I can see
Gridlock, goin' nowhere

Roll down the window, let me screamI can close my eyes and dream
I can close my eyes and dream
I can close my eyes and dreamIt's 5:00 p.m. on a weekday, friend
I'm going home but I don't know when
I hate this traffic and I hate this town
Gotta honk my horn, try to get aroundI feel like going on a killing spree
Tomorrow I'm going on the RTD
The traffic crawls and the engine stalls
I'm stuck on the edge of the urban sprawlGridlock, up ahead
There's a line of cars as far as I can see
Gridlock, goin' nowhere
Roll down the window, let me screamHey, hey, let's get movin'
Hey, hey, let's get movin'
Hey, hey, let's get movin'
Hey, hey, let's get movin'Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey hey
