Manda and the Marbles - Fast Cars Lyrics

i shift into reverse

i haven't got a place to go in this town

look out i'm cursed

i'm keeping one eye on the pavement

and one in the clouds



this time it hurts

i'm floorin' the pedal to save me from this town

i let it slide

another mistake another thing i can't



fast cars and fast girls won't keep us going

we've got to keep movin' on

in this city where every boy is so ready



i shift into third

i haven't got a good friend left in this town

this time it hurts

i'm keeping my eyes on the road as i follow it down

i round the turn

still floorin' the pedal to save me from this town

i let it slide

another wrong turn it's just another thing i can't



i shift into first

another day closer to it

time flies why try when it's easy to lose

but it's easier to just forget

i round the turn

they're following me

but i'm not any closer to it

i feel the burn

another day older

another thing i can't
