One Big Parking Lot (Adams)

I live in a house right beside the road
It's easy to find me, everybody knows
I put my car right beside my room
All I need is a shovel and a broom
Well you know what they say
And I know that you're not
You're just one big parking lot

No matter how near, no matter how far
We're all connected by a big piece of tar
The left is my birth place, the right is my tomb
Don't use air I'm living on the fumes
Well you know what you say
And I know that you're not
You're just one big parking lot

* The waves of grains and the fruited plains
Better make way they're about to pave
And anything else that still survives
We're gonna go see with a four-wheel drive

I saw your stall right behind the mall
When you're inside, well, you know you can't hide
You're looking for cash, it's a drive-thru
When you get hungry, it's a drive-thru
Well you know what you say
And I know that you're not
You're just one big parking lot


* repeat

Call it what you want
Flavor it with salt
But you're just sitting on your asphalt
Well you know what you say
And I know that you're not
You're just one big parking lot
I know it
I'm callin' it like it is
That's all you is ...
