My tribute to the Boston driver: that over-caffeinated alpha driver you see in your rearview mirror

lyrics

Welcome to Boston

I’ve returned to the land where I was born
Where the cautious driver is scorned
Where they believe in the hand and in the horn
And if the social fabric gets torn

Well they’ve got places to go
And things to do
That are on the other side of you
Important people coming through
And you’re in their way
Welcome to Boston
Have a nice day

The occasional insult gets hurled
When they are late for ruling the world
You might think that you should go first
But the master of the universe
Is on the phone
And on the wheel
He’s closing in while he closes his deal
He’s on task and you’re in his way
Welcome to Boston
Have a nice day

They have a busy life planned
The reins are in their hand
Who’s really happy
Life is just stress
They have medication
They do not need rest
They just need you to get out of their way
Welcome to Boston
Have a nice day
