It really was a meeting

Watched me climb into my car and

I was going down the track about a hundred and five

They had the stop-watch rolling

I had the headlights blazing I was really alive
The singer was energized by their fast driving and inebriation, feeling a sense of excitement or invincibility.

And yet my mind was blowing

I drank a bottle of tequila and I feel real good

I had the tape deck roaring

But on the twenty-fifth lap at the canal turn
At a specific point or location on the road, the singer became disoriented or lost control due to the effects of alcohol or their reckless driving behavior.

I went of exploring

I knew I wouldn't make it the car just wouldn't make it

I was turning tires burning

I was laughing the bitch was trashed

And death was in my eye

I had started pretty good and I was feeling my way

I had the wheels in motion

There was Peter and the Green fly laughing like drains

Inebriation

The crowd was roaring I was at Brands Hatch

Ooh Mr. Miracle you saved me from some pain

We began to roll

Well bless my soul
