Nails In The Road Lyrics - ¡viva El Amor! - Pretenders

If this is public transportation 

What are you doing here? 

Royalty and people like thee 

Should queue up in the rear 

My patience has worn thin 

My tires are gonna explode 

Yeah, yeah 

Every time I try to get close to you 

You throw nails in the road 

This is a sticky situation 

Will require a measure of tact 

We just don't like to mix it with you all 

It's a cultural fact 

My patience has worn thin 

My tires are gonna explode 

Yeah, yeah 

Every time I try to get close to you 

You throw nails in the road 

This is a cleanup job 

Everybody grab a mop 

You want to further you position 

Well look what floats on top 

On top... 

Well there's class and then there's class 

But we're above all that 

The butcher and the baker 

And the thief and the witch 

And the aristocrat 

My patience has worn thin 

My tires are gonna explode 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Every time I try to get close to you 

You throw nails in the road 

You throw nails in the road 

You throw nails in the road 

You throw nails in the road 

You throw nails in the road 

You throw nails in the road
