Road Trip Lyrics by Nick Zinner

2018

[Verse 1]
Yes she's done it again
I rise from the dead
I touch myself
And I think about power!
When all's said and done
I shake like a dog
I lick off the water
I question your sources
[Verse 2]
There's some sort of job here
No hand in the prefix
Behind closed doors you breathe burning {?} and
I pick up the check
I put my fur coat on
Drop the match on the table
Leave my drugs with your girl
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm an upstart!
And yes, I'm paranoid
Hard times
"Some bitch"
You don't know what push back is
[Verse 3]
And God bless my medication
I sweat the chains, they keep me from the point of no return
The sound of one hand clapping over your own mouth when
Someone keeps their promise and the world begins to burn
[Chorus 2]
I'm an upstart!
And you're disgusted cause you want me
But you also want to kill me
Baby, no way!
Lay claim to my favours, and leave me to starve
[Bridge]
Thousands of hands reach out of the darkness
Millions of mouths scream, "You've got it made."
And your survival's bent on whether you practice
So consider both the actress
And the promenade
[Chorus 3]
'Cause I'm an upstart!
And this is thought crime
After joy
Or so it seems from somebody who looks like me
Is it me?!
I'm an upstart!
I'm fucking paranoid
I'm an upstart!
[Coda]
*Overlapping, largely indistinguishable vocals*
And maximize the very short time that they have
