Rubber Necker from Cardiac Arrest by Tommy and the Heart Attacks

Why are you so nosy
Why must you always stop and see
Other people's misery
Don't you worry, I'm not in a hurry

Does it make you happy
Does it make you feel alive
Is it pleasing to the eye
Rubber necker what the heck are you doing

You can see
Police lights flashing in the distance
An accident you can not miss this
You've got to slow down

I'm always leaving early
To beat the long rush hour drive
What a total waste of time
Rubber necker was the wreck worth watching

So I tune the dial
To get the traffic on the nines
Says everything is moving fine
All this hot air's coming out of nowhere

You can see
Police lights flashing in the distance
An accident you can not miss this
You've got to slow down

So you hit your breaks
On the L.I.E.
Red lights flashing
Fast approaching me
Now everybody else
Is slowing down to see
The rubber necker's wreck and me
