VERSE1 Driving down the street, stop at the sign Waiting for our turn in line. But there is no stop coming the other way I'm really hoping we'll move today. It's times like this that make you say, "Why didn't I drive another way?" CHORUS Well I really think we can make it, why don't you give it a try? well I really think we can make it make it to the other side, I know we can. VERSE2 Some little punk driving like a moron an old man that left his blinker on One with a phone, who are they talking to? It seems they've all conspired against you.

VERSE1 We were at a meeting, you showed up in bulk and tried out your impression of the Incredible Hulk It seems you had a problem with the things I try to do But somehow or another it all comes back to you. When I started wondering what made you act that way There's something that's so obvious it prompted me to say CHORUS You got a chico, chico p.p. chico, chico p.p. VERSE2 You like to tell your people what a crazy guy I am I pretended not to notice, turned the other cheek and grinned. But then things started cooking and it came down to a boil I seized the opportunity to become your greatest foil When your people realized it's hot air that you breathe It came as no surprise to me, you decided time to leave CHORUS 'cause you're a chico, chico p.p. just a chico, chico p.p. guitar solo CHORUS Chico, chico p.p. just a chico, chico p.p.

VERSE1 All I do is sit and watch tv oh but I didn't used to oh I used to have a much better thing to do. I'd listen to it while I was at home and on the way to school back then it was good, it didn't have to be so cool. I wanna know CHORUS What's Wrong with the Radio I wish someone would let me know, Tell me what's wrong with the radio Don't they play any of my songs anymore? Anymore.

Now I'm making music of my own, has it come to this? oh those sweet old days are something I will really miss. I gotta know CHORUS BRIDGE Well I got metal coming out my ears I got rhythm coming out of my pants Who ever thought that a couple of years would take the singing out of sing and dance Country bars, steel guitars, making me sick. Now adays there's too much flash. My achin' soul needs some rock'n'roll or I'm really gonna kick some...... VERSE3 Now I'm making music of my own, has it come to this? oh those sweet old days are something I will really miss. I gotta know CHORUS anymore, anymore

VERSE2 I knew the moment I saw you that you were the one for me Although I know that I've said that about another 2 or 3 But I try to read your mind. If you would just give me a sign I guess I'll have to use this line......if you'll CHORUS BRIDGE You probably don't feel the way I feel about you and if there's no chance for our romance I'm better off without you.

We Can't Hide, We Can't Hide VERSE2 We get the crap from politicians, with foul ambitions. Foul ambitions We hear the lies from great decievers. Are we believers? Are we believers? We Can't Hide, We Can't Hide BRIDGE We need the truth, we need the truth It's up to me it's up to you Do we not see or are we blind? Are we afraid of what we'll find? VERSE3 We see the track, where is it leading? It's so misleading? So misleading? No turning back, procrastination. No hesitation. Hesitation. We Can't Hide, We Can't Hide
