Tonight Is the Night I Fell Asleep at the Wheel / / Hidden Sun (Hidden Track) - Barenaked Ladies

Driving home to be with you

The highway’s dividing, the city’s in view

As usual, I’m almost on time

You’re the last thing that’s on my mind

I wish I could tell you the way that I feel

But tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

No commotion, no screaming brakes

Most of it’s over before I awake

From the ceiling, my coffee cup drips

While out my window, the horizon does flips

The worst part was hitting the ground —

Not the feeling so much as the sound

Can’t help but wonder if all this is real

Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

Rubberneck traffic and passersby

And Slow Motion Walter the fire engine guy

Stand around with their mouths open wide

I heard some idiot ask if someone’s inside

With the Jaws of Life they tried and they tried

Nobody here can know how I feel

Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel

I guess it’s over now

Cause I’ve never seen so much

Never seen so much, never seen so much

Never seen so much, never seen so much

I guess it’s over now

Cause I’ve never seen so much

Never seen so much, never seen so much

Never seen so much, never seen so much

So much blood

In all the confusion, there’s something serene

I’m just a posthumous part of the scene

Now I’m floating above looking in

As the radio blares and wheels spin

I can see my face slump with a grin

And you… you're the last thing on my mind

You’re the last thing on my mind

You’re the last thing on my mind

You’re the last thing on my mind
