Jane Wiedlin – Rush Hour Lyrics

Rock

Something's coming over me
I'm so dizzy I can't see
Can't make out the forest for the trees
My heart is beating faster now
As the traffic's slowing down
And suddenly I'm all alone with you
It's so good
Baby, when you're at the wheel
I can't believe the way I feel
It's such a rush just being with you
We're driving in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You take me to the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You got me in the rush hour
Feel it getting hot in here
Feel me getting close to you dear
Slow motion moving you, moving me
Now your lips are touching mine
And in your eyes that certain shine
Honey, I know just where you're taking me
It's so good
Baby, when you're at the wheel
I can't believe the way I feel
It's such a rush just being with you
We're driving in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You take me to the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You got me in the rush hour
It's so good
Baby, when you're at the wheel
I can't believe the way I feel
It's such a rush just being with you
We're driving in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You take me to the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You got me in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
(Ooh, you send me)
You got me in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
We're driving in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me)
You got me, You got me,You got me
(Ooh, you send me)
We're driving in the rush hour
(Ooh, you send me),(oh, you send me)

About This Song

"Rush Hour" is an exhilarating new wave rock anthem that transforms the mundane experience of traffic into a metaphor for romantic intoxication and desire. Wiedlin uses driving imagery to capture the disorienting, breathless feeling of falling in love, with lyrics that blend physical sensations of dizziness and racing heartbeats with the paradox of feeling both trapped in traffic yet liberated by passion. The song's upbeat, synth-driven rock sound perfectly mirrors its theme of finding ecstasy in unexpected moments, while the repeated phrase "it's such a rush" creates a clever double meaning between the literal rush hour commute and the emotional rush of romance. With its infectious energy and clever wordplay, the track stands out as a quintessential 1980s celebration of how love can transform even the most ordinary circumstances into something extraordinary.
