Lyrics for To B Without A Hitch

Cars roll by a hundred miles an hour, windscreen wipers driving off the rain. Wonder if they'll make it where they're going to or will it be the same as when they came. But as for me - I'll sit and eat a buttercup sandwich and wait 'til the shower is over. Everyone tries boarding rush hour buses even though they know there's no more room. Me, I sit here trying to to thumb somewhere. In time, I know, a car is bound to come. But until then - I'll sit and eat a buttercup sandwich and wait 'til the shower is over. Water does no more than get you soaking but people act as if they're going to drown. Forget about the Summer when the sun burns their skin, forgetting man lives not by bread alone. But as for me - I'll sit and eat a buttercup sandwich and wait 'til the shower is over.
