Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Traffic Jam lyrics

Lightning stikes inside of my brain I wonder if it'll happen again This never was really part of the plan Traffic jam Screaming nightmares that nobody hears Still running crazy after so many years Is life just something we hold in our hands Traffic jam And as the dreams unravel So many roads to travel Life is a battle in the palm of your hand You take each hit you pay your dues Sometimes you win sometimes you lose Life's like a sandbox without sand It's a traffic jam, it's a traffic jam Rag dolls and broken airplanes Empty toy box and pieces of games Parts of this puzzle I don't understand Traffic jam The organ grinder is down on his luck So is the monkey with a little tin cup Who's running this circus and where do I stand Traffic jam And as the dreams unravel So many roads to travel Life is a battle in the palm of your hand You take each hit you pay your dues Sometimes you win sometimes you lose Life's like a sandbox without sand It's a traffic jam, it's a traffic jam Is there a place where everyone goes When they come to the end of their road If there's no heaven, it's all been a scam Traffic jam And as the dreams unravel So many roads to travel Life is a battle in the palm of your hand You take each hit you pay your dues Sometimes you win sometimes you lose Life's like a sandbox without sand It's a traffic jam, it's a traffic jam
