Lyrics
I’ve got these debts to pay,
Leave the city in a stolen car,
I’ve got blood on my hands,
Warriors coming out to play.
I can’t see anything now in my back mirror.
I got away, I drove away so far,
I lost my teens to the fashion queens,
So I drive like Steve McQueen.
What choice did I have?
I was running on empty in the land of plenty.
They seem to help everybody but me.
So I saw an opportunity and I took it,
Now I’m out the door like a speeding bullet.
To a place, a place they’ll never see.
I can’t see anything now in my back mirror.
I drove away, I got away so far.
I lost my teens to the fashion queens,
So I drive like Steve McQueen.
Looks like I got away,
Packed all I need, head for the sun.
No time for fond farewells,
Start my life on the run.
I can’t see anything now in my back mirror,
I got away, I drove away so far,
I lost my teens to the fashion queens,
So now I drive like Steve McQueen
