We can talk about it in the car
We can talk about it with the drive
Keep your eyes on the road up ahead
Don't forget what we said about staying alive

If we'd been stuck just a few hours more
I'd have cracked up, I'd say
No, you never can tell when it's coming
It's so hard getting out of the way
To be sitting targets is surely
No better than running away

Sitting targets in the car
I'll be thinking about it, not so far
Not so far, not so far to drive
Not so far to drive

Ooh, this time we made our getaway
We'd been stalling for too long
Keep your eyes on the road up ahead
While I try to forget what's been going wrong
What's been going on

So you better check up on the CB
See what Tail and Charlie say
Oh, you never can tell how it's going
No, you never can see how it's been
But to stay sitting targets is surely
No better than living a dream

Sitting targets in the car
I've been thinking it over
It's not so far to, no so far to
Not so far to drive in the car

We can talk about it in the car
Surely we can talk about it some other time
Keep your eyes on the road up ahead
I don't seem to be able to use mine
And I'm losing control of my body
And I'm running scared

Oh, we're left with a black and white movie
A positional state of affairs
An obsessional interest in moving
Just to prove that we're there

Sitting targets in the car
I'll be thinking about it
Not so far to drive

Sitting targets in the car
I've been thinking it over
It's not so far, not so far
Not too far to drive
