I never thought traffic was important
I got to hear one more Bossa Nova
Genero Vasquez is coming on over
And 494 looks like a clover
Well I\'m high on my hat
What you think about that
I never thought traffic was important

A Saturday afternoon in June
Granddaddy sun pulling on the moon
I\'m riding that line right on the bass
Wes\' guitar is all in my face
It\'s all in the flow
Tune on in and you\'ll know
I never thought traffic was important

I\'m traveling light cause that\'s just like me
Radio low on the frequency
Taking the long way out to your house
Hit me with something cool on the alternate route
Keep it smooth and be sure
That you take the detour
I never thought traffic was important

Don\'t want the crosstown out to France
Fore you get in that traffication trance
Taking the long way out to your place
The Brubeck and Basie is all in my face
Ah! The wisdom we\'ll know
In ten minutes or so
I never thought traffic was important
