Wake-Up Screaming - Pileup on the Interstate

Slowing down to assess the damage
Twisted metal
Burned, warped and ravaged
Onlookers horny for disaster porn
Get off on tragedy
While victims mourn

Scattered shrapnel spread all around
Fragments once recognized
Bottleneck the southbound
Asking questions like an interview
As if there's something that you can do

Winding through the emergency flares
The first-responder's hollow stares
Disaster like this must be seen to believe
A gruesome attraction
Ballard would be pleased

Scattered shrapnel spread all around
Fragments once recognized
Bottleneck the southbound
Asking questions like an interview
As if there's something that you can do

The moment is gone
The novelty's passed
The tow trucks have freed up the lanes at last
The spectacle outlives it's staying power
Until the next fool drives home from happy hour

Scattered shrapnel spread all around
Fragments once recognized
Bottleneck the southbound
Asking questions like an interview
As if there's something that you can do
