about

Outtake from the recording sessions for Everything I Think I Know Is Wrong.

lyrics

Rolling around in the backseat I've got a hubcap and a skull
Next to a pile of T-shirts from the early days of rock and roll
One of them says ANARCHY
Yeah, it don't know the half of it
I keep picking at a scab to see whether the wound has healed
Maybe I'll console myself with a bleacher seat at Wrigley Field
Misery loves company

Quarter tank of gas and I'm miles from home
Street lamp, billboard, broken radio
No matter where I'm going I always seem to drive alone
You don't know the half of it

Yoga mat, motherboard, Mary full of grace
I'm full of good intentions but they never get me anyplace
Why break a streak?
Some things come out clearer sitting in a diner booth
Black coffee, paper placemat, side order of the truth
You can hold the sugar

Quarter tank of gas and I'm miles from home
Street lamp, billboard, broken radio
No matter where I'm going I always seem to drive alone
You don't know the half of it

Babe, you don't know the half of it
My babe, you don't know

White lines and highway signs I don't really know
I just started driving without a clue of where to go
Hope I know when I get there
Some days I wake up hopeful, and I know I love you still
But you don't really want me, and you probably never will
I guess that's the most of it

Quarter tank of gas and I'm miles from home
Street lamp, billboard, broken radio
No matter where I'm going I always seem to drive alone
Yeah
