Burnout
Better buckle up, you’ve got to watch and see,
What happens when I push, this button labelled B.
B for a burnout, B to be free,
B to remember how it felt to be three,
No worries, No money, No commitments, No pain,
A button on a lever, a lever on a frame,
A hand to push the button, and a feeling that’s insane.
Burnout of road, drive out your brain,
Let them see what you’ve done, and they’ll soon want the same.
B for a change, B for a dare,
B to remember how it felt to be there,
No worries, No money, No commitments, No pain,
One button, one escape, one ruler of the lane,
A hand out the window, and a feeling that’s insane.
Ease past the others, laugh at their speed,
Let them see what you’ve done, as you take the lead.
