Rubberneck - Blues Traveler

Whenever there’s smoke and fire

You’ll find him handy to admire

Never learns the victims' names

Roasting snacks upon the flames

Always just to happen by

Blood-soaked steel, but he keeps dry

Without concern for who’s left alive

It’s entertainment for his drive

Hey, here comes Rubberneck

He never helps but he loves a wreck

He should close his mouth and drive away

He’d seize a peek but not the day

Sideline living is so sweet

There’s always something good to eat

Smug behind that safety glass

Committed not but to save his ass

With thoughts like «better you than me»

I guess that’s why he wants to see

Appreciation only learned

By watching someone else get burned

Hey, here comes Rubberneck

He never helps but he loves a wreck

He should close his mouth and drive away

He’d seize a peek but not the day

Rubberneck, his luck ran out

Met with a truck and lost the bout

Smolders in a twisted chunk

While we praise our own and curse his luck

Hey, here comes Rubberneck

He never helps but he loves a wreck

He should close his mouth and drive away

He’d seize a peek but not the day

Hey, here comes Rubberneck

He never helps but he loves a wreck

He should close his mouth and drive away

He’d seize a peek but not the day
