Swing of the Highway

Highway swing Highway dance Swing in and out Swing carefully Out to stay alive Out there on the freeway Alive still Alive to swerve Swerve all about Swerve cautiously Still moving Still dancing About to smash About to crash Moving slowly Moving not at all Smash heard Smash song Slowly turn Slowly open eyes Heard metal Heard brakes Turn and look Turn and feel sad for them Metal crumpled Metal jumbled Look away Look toward Crumpled car Crumpled truck Away I go Away from this sad Car speeds up Car racing soon Go on truck Go on car Up a hill Up toward clouds Truck screeches on brakes Truck slams them hard Hill so daunting Hill so steep Brakes hold Brakes keep us in place Daunting day Daunting and slow Highway Dance Highway Nerve Nerve of steel, we drivers, now Dance of highway, daily dance
