Lyrics for Double Life

It takes a fast car lady to lead a double life It takes a slow star lady if you want to do it twice You take your backseat rumble Take your frontseat wife Takes a fast car lady to lead a double life It takes a light foot lady to lead a double life It takes a good book maybe if you want to do it nice When you idle at the stop light you better get the signal right Light foot lady, you need a double life Well, lift me from the wondermaze Alienation is the craze And it's all gonna happen to you You think it's a phase And it's all gonna happen to you When you drive in the haze It takes a freeway lady to lead a double life It takes some leeway lady if you want to do it twice Neon blinking on the street Everyone is bittersweet Freeway lady, you lead a double life Well, lift me from the wondermaze Alienation is the craze And it's all gonna happen to you You think it's a phase And it's all gonna happen to you When you drive in the haze It's all gonna happen to you (It's all gonna happen to you) That's right I said And it's all gonna happen to you That's right well Gonna say it to you-oo (It's all gonna happen to you) Well that's right oh? It's all gonna happen to you-oo, well I said it's all gonna happen to you-oo-oo yeah Gonna tell ya again, I said (It's all gonna happen to you) well
