Dr. Kevorkian & The Suicide Machine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She pulled up in '67
Said, 'Babe I ain't goin' far.
Do you think that I can get a ride?'
She said, 'Kid, man the fuck up now!
cre you sure you wanna be inside?'
Then I wet myself
Eyes shaded by her aviators
Head bangin' like a radiator
My head was swimmin' from her fumes
Tongue tied like a fuckin' child
That girl's got me hypnotized
They tell me, 'Boy that chick is wild'
But I don't give a damn
I'm in love with a motorhead
But she don't give a fuck 'bout
My friends tell me, 'Run away!'
But I'm glued to her passenger seat
My head was swimmin' from her fumes
Tongue tied like a fuckin' child
That girl's got me hypnotized
They tell me, 'Boy that chick is wild'
But I don't give a damn
I don't give a damn
I don't give a damn
I don't give a damn
