Broken Dancer III - Too Much Gas

Another show over
But you don’t feel right
You get into your car
And burn into the night

Trees whizzing by
The stars in the sky
Tears flood your eyes
You can’t see the road

The needle hits eighty
You’ve sweat on your brow
When it passes one hundred
You lose your resolve

You stomp on the brakes
They fail to take
You realize your mistake
By then you’ve lost control

You gave it too much gas
You went much too fast
There were no cars to pass
You just gave it too much gas

Spinning and swerving
All over the road
You can’t see the truck
There’s no way to avoid

Crushed and bleeding you lay
You hear someone say
The ambulance is on the way
Oh the hell with it

From the operating table
The doctor looks grim
He’s shaking his head
Everything grows dim

In a recovery room
Draped with gloom
You find out you’re doomed
You’ll never walk again

You gave it too much gas
You went much too fast
Never again will you dance
You just gave it too much gas
