Juan in the Rearview Mirror

Juan in the Rearview Mirror

I know he saw us in his rearview mirror
I know he saw us in his rearview mirror
I know he saw us in his rearview mirror
but he ain稚 coming back here

cars go by, their blinkers flash,
some come too close and they make a splash
but we値l be home soon, if we cross this street
the vent by our kitchen will warm our feet
and we値l be alright
the whites speed by, at alarming rates
where all my amigos congregate
and my daddy waits, for his ride to work
a flatbed of dark men in flannel shirts
return at night

call me Juan- I keep my sister dry
they say jump, and me, I don稚 ask why
quiet, Isa- I値l keep you dry
I won稚 break this carriage at three feet high

The days drift by, like a distant boat,
safe out of range from us throwing stones
and we値l be out soon, less we make the rent
there痴 no trace where the money痴 spent
but we値l be alright
one day I値l buy a grown-up car
if I reach the pedals I値l take us far
so take away, any rearview mirror
get me and my sister the hell out of here

Chorus

I know he saw us in his rearview mirror-
I値l keep you dry
I know he saw us in his rearview mirror-
I値l keep you dry
I know he saw us in his rearview mirror-
I値l keep you dry
I know he saw us
