If we're driving on the road
and the traffic's snarled and slowed, well,
I'd rather be stuck with you
If we should we lose our way
Our trip has gone astray, well,
I'd rather be lost with you
If we should lose our truck
Because the wheels are stuck
Or if we lose the car
That's hit by a falling star, oh
If we should both get ill
from the local all-night grill, well
I'd rather be sick with you
If there's nothing we can eat
but pickled pigeon feet, well,
I'd rather be starved with you
If nothing's there to eat
and we're trapped inside by sleet
Or if we have a nosh
in a place too loud to mosh, oh
If we should both get hit
by a well aimed flaming spit, well,
I'd rather be hurt with you
If we both fall the same
and end up being lame, well,
I wanna hobble round with you
If natives throwing stones
try hard to break our bones
Or if some UFOs
Steal our eyes and all our clothes, oh
If it's a rainy day
and the sky is dark and grey, well,
I'd rather be there with you
If hurricanes and quakes
would give us both the shakes, well,
I'd rather fall down with you
If the weather's being bad
and it leaves you feeling sad
Or if that sunny sky
should blind both you and I, oh
If we're lost in outer space
The last members of the human race, well,
I'm glad to start the race all over
So long as we find some land with clover
I'm happy I'll be starting all over with you...
