Drive-thru Lovers

 

From one bar to the next

The search ensues for roulette sex

I see all you Casanovas checkin’ out the scene

Lookin’ for tonight’s victim beauty queen

Yeah, your gonna get juiced

With a willing honey so loose

“Lucky” is your name

And scorin’ is your game

 

Chorus:

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

It’s a dangerous road your on

Gave your heart under the covers

Now you’re movin’ on

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

Pull on ahead if you please

 But don’t complain of others

Who bring you crashing to your knees

 

 And all you queen of diamonds dressed to kill

Like a vacuum in men’s wallets, every dollar bill

A different guy every night

Sometimes by the hour, “I’m just lookin’ for Mr. Right”

Wake up next to that young shy boy, “Oh what’s his name?”

Don’t you ever get tired of this crazy game?

And who’s foolin’ who?

When your husbands cheatin’ on you too

 

Chorus:

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

It’s a dangerous road your on

Gave your heart under the covers

Now you’re movin’ on

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

Pull on ahead if you please

 But don’t complain of others

Who bring you crashing to your knees

 

And the pickins’ get so few

Unless in walks someone new

Like vultures you all take your turn

“Hey Baby you’re hot, let me make you burn”

Year after year it’s the same old story

Don’t blink cause soon you’ll be lookin’ at forty

Wonderin’ where all the years have gone

And there you’ll be the lonely one

 

Yeah, you might think it’s no big deal

But don’t you think it’s time you got real

There’s more to life than just one night stands

Maybe it’s time you grew up and make a plan

Tomorrows only on your side

If from it you don’t try to hide

Look in your rear view mirror

Is that your life fading away

Down the lost river?

 

Chorus:

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

It’s a dangerous road your on

Gave your heart under the covers

Now you’re movin’ on

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

Pull on ahead if you please

 But don’t complain of others

Who bring you crashing to your knees

 

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

Drive-thru lovers (drive-thru lovers)

 

Hey, you want cries with that shake?
