When I Sing in My Car

Lyrics
I’m an awkward girl
I laugh at my own jokes
No one else does
Just kidding, they do

And I’m an average girl
I’m good at fitting in
But I don’t stand out
I know it’s true

In the choir, I sing like this:
“la, la, la” sort of meekly
When I’m at church, I sing like this: ah, we do it weekly

But in my car and on the road,
I become a star
I sing like “BOOM, BOOM, BOOM” with amazing belting And whoa - when I sing in my car!

I pull up to the school with curlers in my hair
Tinted windows
No one can see me
I’m rollin’ to my spot, with curlers in my hair
Kind of like - yeah!
Pretty much everybody wants to be me

When I’m in class, I talk like this:
“Bonjour, Monsieur Principal”
Sort of formal
In front of boys, I talk like this:
Pretty normal

But in my car and on my own, it gets pretty bizarre
I sing like “BOOM, BOOM, BOOM”
And what’s even happening?
Whoa - when I sing in my car!

I’m like riffing, whoa like Whitney Houston’s chops. Oh!
I’m like Beyonce, oh ring the alarm and call the cops! Cause I just went there.
I just hit that.
With ma seat belt on, inhibitions gone
And BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
Like I’m in my room, room, room!
Feeling hot as I hit the spot. Yeah!
In the parking lot.
Feeling free to be, 'cause no one can hear me, yeah!

In real life, I talk like this: not so outright but more obliquely
When I’m at school, I’m more like this:
I don’t do stuff all that uniquely

But when school’s out, I’ll hit the road
I’ll drive super far!
I’ll be like BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Ooh, ooh, ooh, whoa!
Yes, when school’s out, I’ll hit the road
I’ll drive super far!
I’ll be like BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
Ooh, ooh, ooh - a cooler person.
Like whoa!
When I sing in my car!
Ooh!
Oh!
Yeah!
