Traffic Jam - Yonder Mountain String Band

I’m sitting on a hilltop looking at a traffic jam

Laughin' at the people as they drive as fast as they can

But five miles an hour won’t get them very far

They’ll still be sitting in their car

Sitting on a hilltop lookin' at the rushed out crowed

The words that they’re yelling have got to make their mamas proud

But at the rate their goin' its gonna be about a year

Before they get to second gear

I’m sitting on a hilltop lookin at the city move

It makes a lot of noise but it can’t seem to find a groove

People took my advice they tried to slow things down

Stop and take a look around

See me sitting on a hilltop lookin' at 'em look at me

They see a smile on my face and my hair blowin in the breeze

Maybe just one of them will stop and say hello

And sit awhile before they go

It’s time to time to play the music

It’s time to light the lights

It’s time to get things started for another show tonight

It’s time to put on make up

It’s time to do something right

It’s time to play the music on the Muppet Show tonight
