about

A song about the suburban frustration of driver's who sit and drive slowly in the overtaking lane on the freeway. Lyrics by Andrew Winton; Music by Andrew Winton, Paul Novosel and Steve Kelly. Originally written for the three piece outfit - 3PH - you can hear their version on the ep called 'Lime' available at Andrew's website.

lyrics

RIGHT LANE DRIVER

Writhing through the freeway it’s a heated afternoon
Swerving rather blindly P76 saloon
He drives so slowly, so meek and lowly
And I bet he does it all day

Slow you down, drive you round the bend
Right lane driver
Run them down, they’ll be back again

Messing with her hair she wanders through the lanes
Lipstick rear vision she powders her facial veins
A transformation in transportation
And I bet she does it all day

Slow you down, drive you round the bend
Right lane driver
Run them down, they’ll be back again
Right lane driver
Roundabout, scream and shout at them
Right lane driver
Slow you down, drive you round the bend

Caravan jam, a pram on a smoking bus
Driving’s a pleasure, brings hatred in all of us
Automobile in peace

Chorus

Another multinova makeover (right lane driver)
Your wife pulled over in a green range rover (right lane driver)
Motor coma now I’m boiling over (right lane driver)
