Mort Garson - Leave the Driving to Us lyrics
[Mort Garson - Leave the Driving to Us lyrics]
Goodbye Dorothy you're about to
Join the ranks of
Other famous teen-aged drop outs
Like Shirley Temple
Candy and Tallulah Bankhead
Leave the driving to us!
I'm out of the coffin, I'm out of the box
Canvas city isn't where it's at
It's a place where people
Throw rocks at dream
And the dreams shouldn't be stoned
Only the dreamer leave the driving to us!
I'm looking for a place
Where I can look at a strangers face
And not be afraid to offer him a flower
I want that kind of power
Leave the driving to us!
I have to find out where my head belongs
And listen to the kind of songs
That groovy people sing i wanna do my thing
Leave the driving to us!
Canvas city is not a painting
It doesn't have any colors, or any form
And it isn't warm at all only hot in summer
Canvas is a bummer really and I'm splitting
Leave the driving to us!
Join the ranks of
Other famous teen-aged drop outs
Like Shirley Temple
Candy and Tallulah Bankhead
Leave the driving to us!
I'm out of the coffin, I'm out of the box
Canvas city isn't where it's at
It's a place where people
Throw rocks at dream
And the dreams shouldn't be stoned
Only the dreamer leave the driving to us!
I'm looking for a place
Where I can look at a strangers face
And not be afraid to offer him a flower
I want that kind of power
Leave the driving to us!
I have to find out where my head belongs
And listen to the kind of songs
That groovy people sing i wanna do my thing
Leave the driving to us!
Canvas city is not a painting
It doesn't have any colors, or any form
And it isn't warm at all only hot in summer
Canvas is a bummer really and I'm splitting
Leave the driving to us!
