Lyrics

Two black lines streaming out like a guidance line
Put one foot on the road now where the sybourgs(?) are driving
With the wd-40 in their veins-
Your screeching little brakes complains
With the briefcase empty and the holes in my shoes
I try to stay friendly for the sugary abuse
So tell my secretary now to hold all of my calls
I believe I can hear through these walls
Oh please save me, save me from myself
I can't be the only one stuck on the shelf
You said you'd always fall for the underdog

Well I've been dreaming of jetstreams and kicking up dust
A thirty seven thousand foot wonderlust
And with skyline number 9 ticked off on my mind
Oh can you hear me screaming out now through the telephone lines

Oh please save me, save me from myself
I can't be the only one stuck on the shelf
You said you'd always fall for the underdog

Save me

Save me

Save me

Save me
