Title: “Shoulda Took a Left”
(Intro)
Yeah…
I was cruisin’ on a mission, sun high, wheels heatin’ up—
One wrong move had me lost in the desert, stuck.
Bugs tried to tell me though…
⸻
(Hook)
I shoulda took a left, but I turned too early,
Now I’m somewhere in the dust—welcome to Albuquerque.
GPS glitchin’, my whole map blurry,
Jackrabbit on the dash like, “Doc, don’t worry.”
I shoulda took a left, shoulda—shoulda took a left,
Now I’m trapped up in the desert and my map lost breath.
I shoulda took a left, shoulda—shoulda took a left,
Bugs Bunny in my ear like, “Why you look stressed?”
⸻
(Verse 1)
Top down, heat bangin’, roads twistin’ like fate,
Highway split quick—couldn’t read the sign straight.
Thought it said right, maybe sand hit my eyes,
Next thing I know I’m starin’ at an endless sky.
Roadrunner zipped past, beepin’ off to the side,
Coyote on a jetpack yellin’, “Enjoy the ride!”
Pulled into a diner, neon buzzing like bees,
Waitress smirks, “Tourists don’t come here with ease.”
Said I’m tryna get home, she laughed slow and steady,
“Everybody finds this town when they ain’t ready.”
Handed me carrot juice, winked like a prankster,
Bugs popped up like, “Lost, doc?” No answer.

(Hook)
I shoulda took a left, but I turned too early,
Now I’m somewhere in the dust—welcome to Albuquerque.
GPS glitchin’, my whole map blurry,
Jackrabbit on the dash like, “Doc, don’t worry.”
I shoulda took a left, shoulda—shoulda took a left,
Now I’m trapped up in the desert and my map lost breath.
I shoulda took a left, shoulda—shoulda took a left,
Bugs Bunny in my ear like, “Doc, you look stressed.”
⸻
(Verse 2)
Now I’m dodgin’ cartoon chaos, ACME traps droppin’,
Every step I take something wild keeps poppin’.
Bugs chillin’ on a cactus like this all routine,
While I’m sprintin’ from contraptions lookin’ mean.
He crunch a carrot calm, says, “Relax, city slick,”
While I’m runnin’ from a monster that showed up quick.
I yell, “Help me out!” He points east real lazy,
“You should read signs better, doc—y’all drive crazy.”
Dust cloud behind me, no brakes, no mercy,
Could’ve been home by now if I ain’t missed that turn early.
⸻
(Bridge)
Left turn, wrong burn, now I’m trapped in tunes,
Desert sun heavy, sky wide as monsoons.
Rabbit as my guide with that Brooklyn flow—
“How you end up here, doc?” Man, I don’t know.

I shoulda took a left, but I turned too early,
Now I’m somewhere in the dust—welcome to Albuquerque.
GPS glitchin’, my whole map blurry,
Jackrabbit on the dash like, “Doc, don’t worry.”
I shoulda took a left, shoulda—shoulda took a left,
Now I’m trapped up in the desert and my map lost breath.
I shoulda took a left, shoulda—shoulda took a left,
Bugs Bunny in my ear like, “Doc, you look stressed.”

(Outro)
So next time you drivin’ and the road gets quirky—
Remember one thing: don’t end up in Albuquerque.
