Middle Of The Busiest Road Lyrics - Badlees

Dreamed a misfit came a calling days at a time 

A malcontent from the look alike ball and she was mine 

She said, take all preconceptions, tie 'em if you have to with a bow 

Leave 'em proud and prominent in the middle of the busiest road 

A stripper picked me up one night 

Down at the hideaway jewel 

She just wanted breakfast talk 

She was working her way through school 

Talked about her boyfriend 

And her second full semester overload 

She said, some days I feel like 

I've been thrown in to the middle of the busiest road 

And I'm riding, only riding 

A wreck out on the interstate and I got out to look 

Flares, blood and cassette tapes, broken glass by a trivia book 

Trooper said she never felt a thing as far as real trauma goes 

Two strangers hold a requiem in the middle of the busiest road 

And I'm riding, only riding, yeah, I'm riding 

I'm gonna start a talk show on a local am station 

One in danger of going dark and I'll pay 'em compensation 

Five thousand watts of power freeing tales of happenstance untold 

Eventually I'll be toll free to the dwellers of the busiest road 

And I'm riding, only riding, yeah, I'm riding, only riding
