The Modern Lovers - Stop This Car lyrics
[The Modern Lovers - Stop This Car lyrics]
All right this is a-one, a-two
A-one, two, three, four
So far she's taken three red lights
Four wrong turns
She’s got the leatherette seat
Full o' cigarette burns
Goodbye in the front, goodbye all about
Stop this car, I'm gettin’ out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
I'm not gonna wait until we land in the brook
And have all the little fishies swim
By and take a look
Now they're all laughing at us
With the little brook trout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I’m gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I’m gettin' out
"Mellow out, man, mellow out" "No, no"
"yeah, what’s he so uptight about?"
"No, no, no, no" "Smoke some of this, man"
"And act like an ostrich with
His head in the sand?"
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
I say, stop this car I'm getting out!
I say stop this car I am gettin' out
Suppose that deer runs ’cross the road
Suppose that truck hit's a rock
In front of us all you mellow little fellows
Gonna be scattered about
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, thanks, I'm gettin' out
"Jonathan, don't make a scene"
"Okay, just tell her to wait
'til the light turns green"
"You're wild, man, like
Your vibes are so uptight"
"yeah, but not for long, pal
I'm sayin' good night"
She's taken three red lights
Four wrong turns
She's got the leatherette seats
Full o' cigarette burns
Bye in the front, bye all about
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
A-one, two, three, four
So far she's taken three red lights
Four wrong turns
She’s got the leatherette seat
Full o' cigarette burns
Goodbye in the front, goodbye all about
Stop this car, I'm gettin’ out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
I'm not gonna wait until we land in the brook
And have all the little fishies swim
By and take a look
Now they're all laughing at us
With the little brook trout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I’m gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I’m gettin' out
"Mellow out, man, mellow out" "No, no"
"yeah, what’s he so uptight about?"
"No, no, no, no" "Smoke some of this, man"
"And act like an ostrich with
His head in the sand?"
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
I say, stop this car I'm getting out!
I say stop this car I am gettin' out
Suppose that deer runs ’cross the road
Suppose that truck hit's a rock
In front of us all you mellow little fellows
Gonna be scattered about
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, thanks, I'm gettin' out

Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Stop this car, I'm gettin' out
