[Verse 1]
A fortune teller with a name I don't remember
She said, "Were you born in May? Or maybe September?
Honey, don't you wanna know what your stars are telling?"
And I said, "Please, please, won't you tell me?"
She gave me something I didn't know I needed
It took a walk down the street to realize I stopped dreaming
I gave her all my cash and I walked around the corner
Sipping on my old coffee and thinking it all over
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been stuck in the apartment
Summer's flying by
No use wishing things were different
Sitting here inside
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
That car ain't gonna go, no, no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights are all around
[Verse 2]
Call me crazy, an optimist maybe
Well I tried it the other way, and where did it get me?
If you keep doing what you do, you keep getting what you get
Over and over and over again
[Pre-Chorus]
No use wishing things were different
Sitting here inside
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
That car ain't gonna go, no, no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights are all around
Let's go
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
That car ain't gonna go, no, no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights are all around
Oh, oh, oh
That car ain't gonna go, no, no
Unless I push the pedal down
You see, green lights
