Something Corporate
“I Woke Up In A Car”

i woke up in new york city

from my sleep behind the wheel

caught a train to Poughkeepsie

and time stood still

she wrote me a letter from san diego

to qualify her luck

these flights connect through arizona

but i think i’ll stay stuck

so here i am

here i am

well i woke up in a car

i traced away the fog

so i could see the mississippi on her knees

i’ve never been so lost

i’ve never felt so much at home

please write my folks and throw away my keys

i woke up in a car

i woke up in a car

i met a girl who kept tattoos for homes

that she had loved

if i were her i’d paint my body

until all my skin was gone

she wrote me a letter as we passed through rockford

she said she won’t forget

maybe i do maybe i don’t

but i know i haven’t yet

so here i am

here i am

well i woke up in a car

i traced away the fog

so i could see the mississippi on her knees

i’ve never been so lost

i’ve never felt so much at home

please write my folks and throw away my keys

i woke up in a car

i woke up in a car

and maybe i could live forever

if not ever i had known

that you’d be waiting here whenever i am all alone

but here i am

well i woke up in a car

i traced away the fog

so i could see the mississippi on her knees

i’ve never been so lost

i’ve never felt so much at home

please write my folks and throw away my keys

well i woke up in a car

i traced away the fog

so i could see the mississippi on her knees

i’ve never been so lost

i’ve never felt so much at home

please write my folks and throw away my keys

i woke up in a car

i woke up in a car

i woke up in a car
