Words: Marianna Winter, Jennifer Aalto & Joakim Buddee
Music: Marianna Winter, Jennifer Aalto, Joakim Buddee & Ragnar Finsson
Don´t lose your shit, i´m just honest
we´ll crash the car in the parking lot
Been down this road way too often
And i´m scared we´ll take it too far
When we’re
Pedal to the metal in the car with the windows down
rollin in a compact, trippin’ no cap
gotta stop ‘fore I hear that (*CRASH*)
Won´t you vibe with me ( vibe with me)
Cause we got nowhere else to be
Just don´t lie to me ( don´t lie to me)
Red lights ain’t holding us back
Picking up speed, we’re going
too faaaaaaast
And I would rather be cruising
Seatbelt´s on
We’re going too fast
I would rather be cruising
If not to last then why bother
I feel my best when we’re side by side
I need a friend in a lover
I don´t wanna leave either one behind
When we’re pedal to the metal
in the car with the windows down
Let´s ride
Rollin in a compact, trippin’ no cap
gotta stop ‘fore I hear that (*CRASH*)
Wont u vibe with me
Cause we got nowhere else to be
Just don´t lie to me
Red lights ain’t holding us back
Picking up speed, we’re going
too faaaaaaast
and I´d rather be cruising
seatbelt´s on
we’re going too fast
and I´d rather be cruising
