Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're gonna crash, So watch your step, Don't go back,
You're gonna break your neck, So shut, Shut your mouth,
Because I'm not listening anyhow, I've had enough of you,
Enough to last a lifetime through, So what do you want from me?
I got no words of sympathy for you, For you.
[Chorus]
We're gonna crash,
Na Na Na Na Na, Don't slow down,
We're gonna crash,
Na Na Na Na Na, Don't slow down,
We're gonna crash.
Here we go, Way too fast, Don't slow down, We're gonna crash,
You don't know what's been going down,
You've been running all over town,
So shut, Shut your mouth, Because I'm not listening anyhow,
I've had enough of you, Enough to last a lifetime through,
So what do you want from me? I got no words of sympathy for you, For you.
[Chorus]
Here we go, Way too fast, Don't slow down, We're gonna crash,
You don't know what's been going down, You've been running all over town,
So shut, Shut your mouth, Because I'm not listening anyhow,
I've had enough of you, Enough to last a lifetime through,
So what do you want from me? I got no cure for sympathy for you, For you.
[Chorus]

Heard the original on the radio this morning. Spent the last three hours trying to remember which punk band covered it. Finally figured it out. Great song.
