Must have stepped in when I was empty
So wise he sat there just waiting?
I never looked up or looked in
And looked in the mirror, behind me
A man 'round forty in the backseat
He stepped down from the car
And then I looked up
A five and a pocket full of silver
To get your attention, makes me smile
It gives me so much satisfaction
He said, "Just drive me away"
And still I look up
The mirror behind me
Likely to smash my face in
Curiosity is over
To watch you beg and cry"
I paid the lady no change
Well, I just made up this story
And then it started to piss down
And then I looked up
Said "I was goin' to die
I didn't know where I was going
And looked in the mirror, behind me
And look in the mirror, behind me
I never looked up or looked in
And still I look up
He had a bag full of money
But it felt good for a change
And look in the mirror, behind me
He pulled a gun from his jacket
Yet it felt good to be strange
I didn't know where I was goin'
I started driving again
