Traffic Jam Lyrics - Bachman & Turner - Bachman & Turner

Traffic Jam 

Randy Bachman 

Lightning stikes inside of my brain 

I wonder if it'll happen again 

This never was really part of the plan 

Traffic jam 

Screaming nightmares that nobody hears 

Still running crazy after so many years 

Is life just something we hold in our hands 

Traffic jam 

And as the dreams unravel 

So many roads to travel 

Life is a battle in the palm of your hand 

You take each hit you pay your dues 

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose 

Life's like a sandbox without sand 

It's a traffic jam, it's a traffic jam 

Rag dolls and broken airplanes 

Empty toy box and pieces of games 

Parts of this puzzle I don't understand 

Traffic jam 

The organ grinder is down on his luck 

So is the monkey with a little tin cup 

Who's running this circus and where do I stand 

Traffic jam 

And as the dreams unravel 

So many roads to travel 

Life is a battle in the palm of your hand 

You take each hit you pay your dues 

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose 

Life's like a sandbox without sand 

It's a traffic jam, it's a traffic jam 

Is there a place where everyone goes 

When they come to the end of their road 

If there's no heaven, it's all been a scam 

Traffic jam 

And as the dreams unravel 

So many roads to travel 

Life is a battle in the palm of your hand 

You take each hit you pay your dues 

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose 

Life's like a sandbox without sand 

It's a traffic jam, it's a traffic jam
