Lyrics

Redefine your parameters
Accelerate the shit you can give now
Your machine, your best friend
Life in cars

And in a world of your own
License to leave you alone
Does tin can equal a happy man?
Life in cars

Start it up
We're just along for the ride
How come you're shaking inside?
We're just along for the ride

No one'll find out where you live
(life in cars)
You're like a cat with a honk for a hiss and
(life in cars)
Your machine, your best friend
Life in cars

And in a world of your own
(life in cars)
Your license to leave you alone
(life in cars)
Does tin can equal a happy man?
(life in cars)

Start it up.
We're just along for the ride
How come you're shaking inside?
We're just along for the ride

When you're caught in a jam
Should've stayed in bed
Excessive speed is screwing with my head
Click in time was all he said
Just slow down, gonna wind up dead
Slow down, gonna wind up dead

(Life in cars)
Redefine your parameters
Accelerate the shit you can give
(Life in cars)
Does tin can equal a happy man?
Thank your lucky stars (thank your lucky stars) for a life in cars (for a life in cars)
Thank your lucky stars (thank your lucky stars) for a life in cars (for a life in cars)
(Start it up) Thank your lucky stars (thank your lucky stars) for a life in cars (for a life in cars)
(Start it up)Thank your lucky stars (thank your lucky stars) for a life in cars (for a life in cars)
For a life in cars (start it up)
Just along for the ride (for a life in cars)
How come you're shaking inside (just along for the ride)
