Speed Demon
Oda Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Bad girls coming tonight
I got a ticket, ticket to ride
Bad boys get off my way
I got to get there, kick in your face

Speeding to get in time
Coz nothing gonna stop me tonight
You really got me pretty baby
Clear the way I′m coming ole ole

Speed demon
Once more I go fighting tonight
Once again be the master of time
Rolling thunder I'm leading the race
The king of kings tonight
Speed demon
Game, over you got to be mine
Love is danger is killing my time
Rolling thunder, into the space
The king of kings tonight

Bad girls roaming tonight
I′m really burning, burning inside
Speed boy get off my way
The king is back, he's kicking your face

Speeding to get in time
Coz nothing gonna stop me tonight
You really got me pretty baby
Clear the way I'm coming ole ole

Speed demon
Once more I go fighting tonight
Once again be the master of time
Rolling thunder I′m leading the race
The king of kings tonight
Speed demon
Game, over you got to be mine
Love is danger is killing my time




Rolling thunder, into the space
The king of kings tonight
