Lyrics

Standing in line, holding tight,
Trying to win this impossible fight,
My stomach’s rumbling, a dangerous sound,
But I can’t let go with people around.

I shift my weight, take a deep breath,
This battle's like a dance with death,
Why now, oh why, of all the days?
At the DMV, stuck in this maze.


Hold it in, just one more minute,
Clenching hard, I know I’m in it,
Sweat’s rolling down, can’t show the pain,
But I’m afraid it’s all in vain.
Hold it tight, don’t lose control,
But my body’s fighting for its soul,
I’m scared to move, scared to bend,
Oh no, I fear this is the end.


A step ahead, just one more to go,
But my insides are putting on a show,
I try to smile, I fake a grin,
But this struggle, I just can’t win.

The line’s so long, the air so thick,
I feel the clock starting to tick,
My face is pale, my mind’s a whirl,
All for a picture with a plastic swirl.


Hold it in, just one more minute,
Clenching hard, I know I’m in it,
Sweat’s rolling down, can’t show the pain,
But I’m afraid it’s all in vain.
Hold it tight, don’t lose control,
But my body’s fighting for its soul,
I’m scared to move, scared to bend,
Oh no, I fear this is the end.


The pressure builds, I try to stand tall,
But I can’t escape nature’s call,
A silent prayer, a final plea,
Please, not here, not in front of me.


Hold it in, just one more second,
But my gut, it won’t be beckoned,
The dam breaks loose, I start to tear,
The moment I’ve been dreading is here.
Let it go, there's no more fight,
In the DMV’s fluorescent light,
A tragic end, a shameful tale,
As I surrender with a helpless wail.


License renewed, but dignity lost,
I paid the price, I know the cost,
As I walk away, feeling low,
My only thought: "Next time, just go."
I just chat my pants....yeah
