Lyrics Drive My Car - Two Gallants

Drive My Car

You don’t listen when he says
That you don’t love him for his brain but for his head
So pretty and so safe and so misread
You don’t need this kid, could it be this kid?
And when all the hate you throw
Is all you really need to cut him from below
Seems like everyone got tickets to the show
To watch your cheeks go red, could it be this kid?
About the girl you speak, so goddamn dangerous
Could it be you’re just like the rest of us?
And though you try you know you can’t escape from us
When all he hears is the curse of what you did
And all he knows is the need to keep you hid
Could it be this kid?
And when all your nights have come
Each as gallant and as faithless as this one
Will he be nothing more than just another one
Another past you hid, you hid it from this kid?
And as the wind instains your face
You know there’s no-one but yourself who’s out of place
So fearful and so lost in his embrace
You don’t need this kid, could it be this kid?
About the girl you speak, so goddamn dangerous
Could it be you’re just like the rest of us?
And though you try you know you can’t escape from us
When all he hears is the curse of what you did
And all he knows is the need to keep you hid
Could it be this kid?
‽It's hard†she said ‽my fortune’s been quite hardâ€
‽It's hard†she said ‽my fortune’s been quite hardâ€
‽This card†he said ‽Don't play that victim cardâ€
‽This card†he said, ‽Don't play that victim cardâ€
‽Stars†she said, ‽This fate is crossed with starsâ€
‽And it’s god†he said, ‽It's that I’ll disregardâ€
‽And this jar†he said, ‽I'll leave the door ajarâ€
‽And this car†he said, ‽'Cos you should drive my carâ€
‽Has this gone much too far?†she said
‽Has this gone much too far?
I don’t know who you are
I don’t know who you areâ€
Just before you break in two
One last thing he’ll say to you
One last thing that’s gone unheard
Should it be unsaid?
I gave you more than you could take
All I put was more at stake
You keep your trophies on the wall
Well, I’ll take the door instead
'Cos you don’t need this kid
But the girl you speak, so goddamn dangerous
Could it be you’re just like the rest of us?
And though you try you know you can’t escape from us
When all he hears is the curse of what you did
And all he knows is the need to keep you hid
Could it be this kid?
