lyrics

I've been ready to rock since day number one
I've been ready to roll like a hit-and-run
Thinkin' 'bout the good and all the bad I've done
How I had and then I lost the only one I loved

Go, Speed Racer, Go!
Go, Speed Racer, Go!

Welcome to the Wasteland, line up at the track
Lewis Hamilton and Danica Patrick
They're gunning for my neck just like a vampire bat
But they can't keep up, and I won't come back!

Go, Speed Racer, Go!
Go, Speed Racer, Go!

I've got a Mach 5 love, my honey's got me screamin'
"Floor it, baby, faster! Can't you go a little faster?"
I've got a Mach 5 love, I keep my honey shakin'
"Floor it, baby, faster! Can't you go a little faster?"

Mellon Collie on the arm of a star
All I wanted to do was to play my guitar
The finish line is still pretty far
But it'd be a better ride with you in my car

Go, Speed Racer, Go!
Go, Speed Racer, Go!

I've got a Mach 5 love, my honey's got me screamin'
"Floor it, baby, faster! Can't you go a little faster?"
I've got a Mach 5 love, I keep my honey shakin'
"Floor it, baby, faster! Can't you go a little faster?"

I've got a Mach 5 love, my honey's got me screamin'
"Floor it, baby, faster! Can't you go a little faster?"
I've got a Mach 5 love, I keep my honey shakin'
"Floor it, baby, faster! Can't you go a little faster?"
Floor it, baby, faster!"

I've been ready to rock since day number one
I've been ready to roll like a hit-and-run
Thinkin' 'bout the good and all the bad I've done
How I had and then I lost the only one I loved
