i'm 17 and i can't drive
I'm seventeen and I can't drive, oh my
But I'm still alright
I'll take a bike ride and be on my way
It's better for the environment anyway
'Cause every time I get behind the wheel, it feels so real
Is that how I wanna feel?
I'm used to stepping on the breaks
To save myself from making any mistakes
I wish I could just get over this lump
It seems to be the size of Everest
I wonder what this burden has become
An everlasting pain that lingers on my chest
My friеnds say driving's like a leap of faith
But I often wondеr how many leaps it takes
To fulfill the perplexities of my perfect itinerary
I'd rather stay in the imaginary
'Cause every time I get behind the wheel, it feels so real
Is that how I wanna feel?
I'm used to stepping on the breaks
To save myself from making any mistakes
I wish I could just get over this lump
It seems to be the size of Everest
I wonder what this burden has become
An everlasting pain that lingers on my chest
I wanna see those blinding shades of green
Those flashing lights
I wanna crash the car
Oh, I wanna almost die
I wanna catch the moon at midnight
I wanna live my life
But I'm seventeen and I can't even drive
I'm seventeen and I can't drive, oh my
But I'm still alright
But I'm still alright
I'll take a bike ride and be on my way
It's better for the environment anyway
'Cause every time I get behind the wheel, it feels so real
Is that how I wanna feel?
I'm used to stepping on the breaks
To save myself from making any mistakes
I wish I could just get over this lump
It seems to be the size of Everest
I wonder what this burden has become
An everlasting pain that lingers on my chest
My friеnds say driving's like a leap of faith
But I often wondеr how many leaps it takes
To fulfill the perplexities of my perfect itinerary
I'd rather stay in the imaginary
'Cause every time I get behind the wheel, it feels so real
Is that how I wanna feel?
I'm used to stepping on the breaks
To save myself from making any mistakes
I wish I could just get over this lump
It seems to be the size of Everest
I wonder what this burden has become
An everlasting pain that lingers on my chest
I wanna see those blinding shades of green
Those flashing lights
I wanna crash the car
Oh, I wanna almost die
I wanna catch the moon at midnight
I wanna live my life
But I'm seventeen and I can't even drive
I'm seventeen and I can't drive, oh my
But I'm still alright
