Rickie Lee Jones - Road Kill lyrics

What's the matter with it? why's
It look that way?
What's the matter with it? what's
It trying to say?
What's that on it's back? where's
It trying to go?
A mystical vision got dressed up one night
Locked the door
Walked through the misty porch light
Headed over to somebody's house
For an occasion long awaited
As it crossed the road, vista del mar
A big red car big black tires, nice corvette
And the future has not arrived yet
Moonlight on the hill
Lights up the road kill
Moonlight on the hill
And the future is a road kill
What's the matter with it? what's
It trying to say?
What's the matter with it? I
Just saw it yesterday
The police came, the neighbors too
They tried to pick it up
What else can you do?
Meanwhile, somebody's waiting back
At the house
For the future to dawn bright across the sky
Moonlight on the hill
Lights up the road kill
Moonlight on the hill, lights up the future
What's the matter with it? what's
It trying to say?
What's the matter with it? why
Won't it go away?
What's the matter with it? why
Won't it close it's eyes?
What's the matter with it? who are those
Guys? what's the matter with it
