LYRICS
If your ball should roll out onto the road
Before you run out, watch for the oncoming load
When you run out into traffic
It could end up tragic
Not the story you want told
“Tragic.. died before he was old.”
Wonder who built the roads anyway?
Now they just seem in the way
Of our progress in being a civilized civilization
On that superhighway of life
A bug’s life is strife
Being shattered on the windshield
’cause that oncoming load would not yield
My life became a mess
My innards on the interstate
Stop. Look. And, listen.
Before you run out on the road, look out for that oncoming load
Oh, %^&*!
Here comes a truck
Do you know if I can duck?
With a giant leap of faith we can overcome that oncoming freight
