Lately, I've been thinking
This could be another soundtrack to your life
Seems like you know the script by heart
The curtains, haven't opened
But I've been watching everybody play the part
Think I'll stick around to see what happens

Give an inch and you take a mile
Couldn't you have waited a little while longer
Was the feeling too strong?

Lately, you've been living on the outside lane
Frankly, I'm not letting you through
Lately, you've been living on the outside lane
Frankly, I'm not letting you through

You need another car

Lately, I've been watching
From the back seat seeing how the others drive
Funny how they love to take control
Til someting isn't working
I see them losing their minds trying to keep their pride
As they race for the first position

Give an inch and you take a mile
Couldn't you have waited a little while longer
With the feeling too strong?

Lately, you've been living on the outside lane
Frankly, I'm not letting you through
Lately, you've been living on the outside lane
Frankly, I'm not letting you through

You need another car
You need another car
You need another car

Lately, you've been living on the outside lane
Frankly, I'm not letting you through
Lately, you've been living on the outside lane
Frankly, I'm not letting you through
