Lyrics

The Passenger (Single Version)

[Verse 1]

I am the passenger

And I ride, and I ride

I ride through the city's backsides

I see the stars come out of the sky

Yeah, the bright and hollow sky

You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger

I stay under glass

I look through my window so bright

I see the stars come out tonight

I see the bright and hollow sky

Over the city’s ripped backsides

And everything looks good tonight

[Chorus]

Singing

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la

[Verse 2]

Get into the car

We'll be the passenger

We'll ride through the city tonight

We’ll see the city's ripped backsides

We'll see the bright and hollow sky

Wе'll see the stars that shine so bright

Stars made for us tonight

Oh, thе passenger

How, how he rides

Oh, the passenger

He rides, and he rides

He looks through his window

What does he see?

He sees the sign and hollow sky

He sees the stars come out tonight

He sees the city's ripped backsides

He sees the winding ocean drive

And everything was made for you and me

All of it was made for you and me

'Cause it just belongs to you and me

So let's take a ride and see what's mine

[Chorus]

Singing

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la

Singing

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la

Singing (I am the passenger)

La la la la la la la la (And I ride, and I ride)

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la

Singing (I am the passenger)

La la la la la la la la (And I ride, and I ride)

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la

Singing (I am the passenger)

La la la la la la la la

(And I ride, and I ride, and I ride, and I ride, and I ride, and I ride, and I ride, and I ride….)

La la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la
