| Sitting here in my mean machine — I’m ready to explode
|
| Looking out of my helmet at the faces
|
| I been wondering all night long — If I will live or die
|
| Yeah, it’s always the same before the races
|
| I got some hot line information
|
| About the man who’s occupation is driving the cars
|
| Standing out there on the grid
|
| And it’s a kind of fascination — And it demands full concentration
|
| The kind of a job
|
| We all dreamed of as a kid
|
| I can see on the track ahead — the heat is rising high
|
| Gotta win for the team and it’s never easy
|
| I been feeling the butterflies — strapped into my seat
|
| Yeah, and already the tension’s getting to me
|
| We’re waiting in anticipation
|
| For some official indication — They’re ready to go
|
| Revving up and hit the road
|
| 'Cause it’s another big occasion
|
| And there won’t be no relaxation — They’re ready to go
|
| And they’re Ready To Explode
|
| You’re gonna drive 'em round the bend
|
| Have a go on the chicane
|
| Gonna drive 'em round the bend
|
| Without a warning — Ready Now To Explode
|
| Who’s gonna be the big sensation?
|
| Who’ll be the champion of the nation?
|
| In one of them cars — Standing out there on the grid
|
| He’s gonna get a big ovation
|
| Be the champion of the nation
|
| The kind of a thrill we all dreamed of as a kid
|
| I don’t wanna break down
|
| And I wanna explode
|
| Don’t let me break down
|
| I wanna explode
|
| Ever since I was just thirteen, I had a crazy, reoccuring dream
|
| To be faster than the speed of sound
|
| It was the only way to get around, oh yeah
|
| (Speeding in my dreams)
|
| Seventeen and I passed my test — Never settling for second best
|
| I knew right away what I’d like
|
| It was a 750 motorbike, oh yeah
|
| (Speeding in my dreams)
|
| I was living for speed
|
| Explode |
