I'll drive this road into the sun

Well, my machine is tired and cool

I don't need to go to school

I'll put the hammer down and I'll leave this town

I'm racing time, the freeway just seems to unwind

In front of me and there's no return

Fit me like a racing glove

Don't make mistakes 'cause you know that I'm
