There's a long line of cars
And they're trying to get through

There's no single explanation 
There's no central destination

But this long line of cars 
Is trying to get through

And this long line of cars

Is all because of you

You don't wonder where we're going 
Or remember where we've been

We've got to keep this traffic 
Flowing and accept a little spin

So this long line of cars 
will never have an end

And this long line of cars 
Keeps coming around the bend

From the streets of Sacramento
To the freeways of L.A.

We've got to keep this fire burning 
and accept a little gray

So this long line of cars

Is trying to break free

And this long line of cars

Is all because of me
