Midnight Mechanic

Shop's closed. Sign says.

Verse 1 Garage door down, radio on Boss man gone, the day is done But the lift's still up with a Camaro on it And the Camaro belongs to a man with a contract I do my best work after eleven When the moths are the customers and the dust is the heaven Coffee in a Styrofoam, eyes like a road Hands that know things hands should know

Chorus I fix everything but mine Cars run smoother than my life A man can wrench what he can't say A man can torque what he can't fight

Verse 2 Wife wrote a note three months ago Said you love that bay more than me, you know I read it once on the workbench top Then I went and changed somebody's stop You can't argue with a thing you can fix Engines don't lie, they just need clicks She wanted a husband, she wanted a man I'm a midnight mechanic doing what he can

Chorus I fix everything but mine Cars run smoother than my life A man can wrench what he can't say A man can torque what he can't fight

Bridge I know every gasket and every gear I know what a leak sounds like a year I just couldn't hear the one at home Some leaks make a sound like nothing at all I fix everything but mine Cars run smoother than my life A man can wrench what he can't say A man can torque what he can't fight

Outro A man can torque what he can't fight
