Danger Zone
Fate Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Speeding up the engine
At the starting line
Fifteen cars waiting for the signs
The flag is up
Now the track is clear
I kick off in the first gear

Everybody race me
But no one's gonna pass me
They all try but I'm always on my own
In the danger zone

Pedal to the metal
And they're off my back
Round the curves
Nearly went off the track
Need a little fuel, "boys fill it up"
Gotta keep moving, I just can't stop

Everybody race me
But no one's gonna pass me
They all try but I'm always on my own
In the danger zone

Going out on the last lap
Still in the lead
Total concentration
From my head to my feet
I'm a daredevil baby and I'm living in sin
I race them all and I always win

Everybody race me
But no one's gonna pass me
They all try but I'm always on my own
In the danger zone





I need a little danger
Gimme gimme danger oh yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Fate's song "Danger Zone" are about a car race where the singer is determined to win. The song begins with the engine being revved up and the singer stating that they're at the starting line with fifteen other cars waiting for the go-ahead. As soon as the flag is raised, they kick off in first gear and take the lead. They are the fastest and no one can catch up. The singer is in their element and doesn't want anyone to pass them. This leads them to the "danger zone," where they are alone but at their most powerful. The race is intense, and they need a little fuel to keep going, but they're determined to win.


In the last lap, they're still leading and are completely focused on the race. They're living on the edge, and they're not afraid to take risks. They race to win and are always in the danger zone. The singer enjoys the rush of adrenaline and wants more of it. They need a little danger, and they want it now.
