Driving Nowhere - Lyrics - Hadouken!
Hadouken! are a British band and were formed in London in 2006 by singer, writer and producer James Smith, alongside his girlfriend, synth player Alice Spooner, with guitarist Daniel "Pilau" Rice, bassist Christopher Purcell and drummer Nick Rice. The band name is taken from the name of the special attack of the same name from the Street Fighter video game series. It was in Leeds that Hadouken! began their own record label, Surface Noise Records.

They go out tonight
trouble hangs out under streetlights
She always seemed to lead him astray
She'd filled his tank up for a trip on the duel carriageway
In his enamoured state he'd always obey
But yet anyway
She'd never leave his side
Eyelids open wide
Eyelids open wide
He always relied
She done such bad things yeah you must understand
She'd lost his house and friends, she almost made him kill a man
Always under his skin, she'd taken cash from him
(Still he took her back)
And they go out tonight
He don't even know her, she's taken him over
And they go out tonight
Driving to nowhere
She sits there silent in his passenger seat
Eyelids stiffened and arteries replete
Condensation on windows, he don't feel a thing no, feels nothing.
He gets pulled over on the cusp of the morning
He doesn't flinch coz he lets her do the talking,
She's got a way with words, and they got nothing on her,
So they carry on.
And they go out tonight
He don't even know her, she's taken him over
And they go out tonight
Driving to nowhere (driving to nowhere)
Take it away, said take it away
Take it away before the dusk turns to day
I'm driving alone I can be strong on my own
I can be strong on my own, I can be strong on my….
And they go out tonight
He don't even know her, she's taken him over
And they go out tonight
Driving to nowhere (driving to nowhere)
And the journey alone ain't so appealing
He's gone he's lost all feeling
Driving to nowhere, driving to nowhere
And they go out tonight
trouble hangs out under streetlights
