Backing Tracks
Way too fast
Don’t slow down
Gonna crash
Watch your step
Don’t lookout
Gonna break your neck
‘Cause I’m not listening anyhow
I’ve had enough enough of you
You know to last a lifetime through
Got no words of sympathy
And if I go around with you
You know that I’ll get messed up too with you
With you
Nana nana na nana nana naaaaa
Way too fast
Don’t slowdown
Gonna crash
What’s been going down
You’ve been running
Allover town
‘Cause I’m not listening anyhow
I’ve had enough enough of you
You know to last a lifetime through
Got no cure for misery
And if I go about with you
You know that I’ll get messed up too with you
With you
Nana nana na nana nana naaaa
