When you slide your body right up next to me (Accelerator) My heart beating faster, I can hardly breathe (Accelerator) Clothes you’re wearing just right, looking like a star (Accelerator) Won’t you take me tonight, riding in your car? (Accelerator) When you drive that speed I feel so weak We don’t have to speak I won’t ever leave Accelerate me I’m where I want to be I’m losing all control Won’t you accelerate Accelerate me Cross my heart and hope to die Accelerate my love babe Feel me in your power drive Accelerate my love babe Round and round and round we go Twist the dagger to and fro Please don’t spare my soul Racing through the night life we don’t ever stop (Accelerator) Street lights fly by, so bright, just like shooting stars (Accelerator) Talk to me in language I don’t understand (Accelerator) Baby keep on climbing, my life is in your hands (Accelerator) When you drive that speed I feel so weak We don’t have to speak I won’t ever leave Accelerate me I’m where I want to be I’m losing all control Well you accelerate Accelerate me Cross my heart and hope to die Accelerate my love babe Feel me in your power drive Accelerate my love baby Round and round and round we go Grab your partner don’t let go Separate my soul I can’t remember when we started driving The night is so black and we left the city a long time ago I don’t mind I lose control Please don’t slow down We’re almost there And though my body is more machine than man Of this I’m sure I belong to you my accelerator

I should have told you I have half a mind To spend each lovely night with you I should have offered you my space and my time It’s not enough to say I do So kiss me in heaven After we die Make me that promise ‘cause I’m gonna work To give my mind to you So kiss me in heaven After we die Baby I promise ‘cause I need more than one life with you I never learned about St. Peter in school But for tonight let’s just pretend I’m never ever gonna stage no revolution on you I’m never ever gonna lose myself again So kiss me in heaven After we die Make me that promise ‘cause I’m gonna work To give my mind to you So kiss me in heaven After we die Baby I promise ‘cause I need more than one life with you

Monday’s fine Tuesdays I’m in trouble Wednesday’s when the whole world’s after me Thursday night I’ll be seeing double Friday morning back out on the street Saturday’s child don’t sleep ’til Sunday Still living that TV fantasy Saturday’s child don’t live forever That’s the way they want it to be Sundays I’ll be praying to another Mondays might as well be working for free Tuesday night I lost another lover Wednesday dream of Saturdays to be Saturday’s child don’t sleep ’til Sunday Still working in the phantom factory Saturday’s child don’t live forever That’s the price of living so free So free me I’ve got no use for high society Their money never lasts that long I’ve got no interest in reality While they sleep I play my saxophone Saturday’s child don’t sleep ’til Sunday Not everything is pain and misery Saturday’s world belongs to no one And that’s the way I like it to be

Fake Roses 02:33
I’m dancing all alone Can’t seem to get my feet just right Second summer on the moon You know it gets so cold at night We used to pick flowers for Elvis But now the meadows all gone Now we just dream of buildings Fake roses planted in the front lawn All that I wanted I didn’t need it All that I wanted I didn’t need it All that I wanted I couldn’t let that go The elevator rush Can’t tell it’s going up or it's down When you just can’t get enough It’s been awhile since you touched the ground I don’t want to rain on your holiday With my hallucinations But the truth always cuts like a razor blade Just when you’re having big fun All that I wanted I didn’t need it All that I wanted I didn’t need it All that I wanted I don’t need that now All that I wanted I didn’t need it All that I wanted I didn’t need it All that I wanted I just let that go There’s water in your mercury There’s thunder in your eyes When all you want is America And all I do is drive Still miles and headlights from you baby
