  • Lyrics
Verse:
I'll tell you 'bout the driver that lives inside my head
starts me up and stops me and puts me into bed
he opens up my mouth when its time for me to talk
and fires up my legs when he wants me to walk

Chorus:
Keeps my eyes open for most of the day
adds to my memory the things people say
when he makes decisions, I don't have to wait
and sometimes it seems that he's got too much on his plate

Verse:
Like this morning when I woke up and he dressed me in this shirt
it looks a little ragged where he dragged me through the dirt
I'm moving through this life and I'm thinking 'bout the next
and hoping when I get there I'll be better dressed

Chorus:
Keeps my eyes open for most of the day
adds to my memory the things people say
when he makes decisions, I don't have to wait
I'll tell you 'bout the driver, that lives inside my head
