Carpool Lane - Louden Swain

It’s a vast change in the carpool lane, uh-huh

A subtle lane shift and I’m caught amidst high speeds

The soccer moms and me

Stuck in overdrive

It’s a long ride

But I’m right by your side

No one told me that there’d be a test, uh-huh

I never studied but I did my best, I think

The answers were in ink

The message was inscribed

It’s a long ride

But I’m right by your side

I tell you, I’m right by your side

Oh this mediocrity

The sign says, «Got no vacancy»

I know that’s just complacency

Calling me

It’s a fine line marking the divide, uh-huh

I could exit, ride into the empty space

But then I see your face

And now I can’t describe

It’s been a long time

And I’m right by your side

I’m right by your side

I’m right by your side
