Shakespear’s Sister - I Can Drive

Hey boys, it’s a steal
You’re hanging on, by your finger nails
As usual, the king is dead
Long live the queens
Hey girls, no big deal
Your fifteen minutes
Start right here, so baby let’s go
Let’s go…

I’m watching the world,
Taking my time
I’ve waited my turn
I’m gonna shine

Heroes take their toll
Hog your dreams, then crush your soul
And take you out, out to dinner
Roll on the original
Highly strung out, spaced out individual
Terminal sinner

I’m watching the world,
Taking my time
I’m waiting my turn
I’m gonna shine

And all the pretty people that I used to see
Have died or moved away
Or they’re in recovery
And all the buildings where the faithless used to play
Have crumbled into clay
And I don’t know what to say,
I just don’t know what to say,
I don’t know what to say

I’m watching the world
I’m taking my time
I can drive…
I’m waiting my turn
I’m gonna shine

I declare my innocence,
I’m worth more than sixty pence
Look, I’ve got a shiny car,
I can drive, I can drive
Yes, baby, I’m for real
That’s just the way I feel
I can take you anywhere,
Anytime, anytime

Everything I pass is old,
Everything I touch is gold,
Now I see the world unfold,
I can drive, I can drive
Yes, it’s a steal,
Nothing that you see is real,
Get yourself a pair of wheels,
Get to drive, go and drive
Come on, come on, I can drive
