Lyrics: Nitzer Ebb. Ebbhead. Lakeside Drive.

Lakeside drive on a summers day
Lakeside drive, nothing to say
Lakeside drive, got a leave today
Nothing, but nothing to keep me away

Old junk car with the windows down
Ride it out to the right side of town
Too hot to breathe, look see, the people seethe
I hope you know that I don't want to leave

Lakeside drive on a summers day
Lakeside drive, nothing to say
Lakeside drive, got a leave today
Nothing, but nothing to keep me away

Stick shift drive, with one hand on the wheel
No need to look because I know how you feel
Roll off the street leaving the water behind
Turn in the basement, see what else we can find

In the basement, it's the safest place
In the basement then it's just my face
Looking up at you as you're looking down on me
Now this is the place where I know I want to be

Looking up at you as you're looking down on me
Now this is the place where I know I want to be

Lakeside drive on a summers day
Lakeside drive, nothing to say
Lakeside drive, got a leave today
Nothing, but nothing to keep me away

Nothing to keep me away
Nothing to keep me away
On a summers day, got nothing to say
Lakeside drive, got nothing to say
Nothing to keep me away

Lakeside drive on a summers day
Lakeside drive, nothing to say
Lakeside drive, got a leave today
Nothing, but nothing to keep me away
