Traffic Panic

TRAFFIC PANIC   2:07

Music & lyrics: Peter Öjerskog

You thought that Thailand’s traffic was driving to the left
Until you met a Thai who was driving to the right
TRAFFIC PANIC
TRAFFIC PANIC
TRAFFIC PANIC
HERE IN THAILAND

You wondered why the Thais not use helmet or safety belt
Well they don’t really need it ‘cause Buddha keeps them safe
CHORUS

You wondered why the Thais always want to overtake
Well now at least you know why it’s called The Human Race
CHORUS

Thai drivers are the worst it really is a shame
But if something happens farang gets all the blame
CHORUS
OUTRO

Lyrics after a suggestion from American friend and guitar builder Tom Tailor in Pattaya, who was riding his motorbike when a car hit him. Thailand has officially the most dangerous traffic in the world.

Music inspired by Swedish musician Totte Wallin’s song Jag Protesterar (I Protest).
