This Car is Fast
Kajagoogoo & Limahl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(VERSE 1)
Nobody knew the people who were needing to save time
So anxious to the little few unnecessary crime
Wo! Everyone saw your reasons for cruising for the ride
Oh! Breaking law was all he said, why don't you step inside?

(CHORUS 1)
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah wo!
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah wo!

(VERSE 2)
So keep it in mind, you generally find a life just rushing by
Exceptionally and obviously some people will even try
No! Sympathy is what I feel, but who would even care, get on this!
When life is slow and the pressure's on, just let down the hair

(CHORUS 2)
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah wo!
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo!

(MIDDLE)
Nobody has to know
The secret though
The world will want to know

(VERSE 3)
As I understand, this car is grand, it's a leader in its field
So! Though simple it seems to drive easily, and the guarantee is sealed
Don't wonder how to drive this car, just a simple simple rule to know, know that
You should drive at the maximum speed, because we don't want to get bored!

(FINAL CHORUS)
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah wo!
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah wo!
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah! I said
This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah ah wo! Ah ah wo ah!




This car (this car)
This car is fast! Ah wo! (Ah ah wo!) Ah ah wo!
