Lyrics and translation
Original
On the side of the road
In a tuxedo
Three below zero
In a red cummerbund
Highway 13
Not a king, not a queen
I didn't wanna come
To your stupid prom
A hissing road flare
Baby's breath in her hair
In the middle of nowhere
In the middle of a nightmare
I had to call my Dad
I knew he'd be mad
I'd never seen him not mad
Vomit in the frozen grass
Peppermint Schnapps
Well, here come the cops
They don't even stop
Oh, there they go
Forever never ends
I'm always back there again and again and again
Forever never ends
I'm always back there again and again and again
Forever never ends
I'm always back there again and again and again
Forever never ends
I'm always back there again and again
On the side of the road
In a tuxedo
In the middle of nowhere
In the middle of a nightmare

On the side of the road
In a tuxedo
In the middle of nowhere
In the middle of a nightmare
