lyrics

"Mechanic" by Claire Ness

I’ve broken down on the side of the road
More times than I can count
I’m getting tired of traveling alone
It’s daunting to stick my thumb out

I open the hood, but I’m no good
Staring down at a tangle
If only I knew someone who could
See life from that kind of angle.

I wanna marry a mechanic
Cause if I fall apart
He’ll put me back together
If he has the right part.

I wanna marry a mechanic
Cause if my screws come loose
He’ll get right to wrenchin’
And give me a boost.

Don’t want no carpenter or plumber
Or any electrician, they’ll just make me blue.
Don’t want no piano man, or veterinarian
But maybe a doctor would do.

I wanna marry a mechanic
Cause if my engine dies
He’ll turn me over and rev me
Til there’s life in my eyes.

I wanna marry a mechanic
Cause when I lift up my hood
He’ll be under there for hours
Just to fix me up good.
He’ll make me purr like a kitten
When I didn’t know that I could.
