Lyric Can t slow down

I m driving hard, punching holes in the heat
The air is clammy, a hamper full of nightmare s sheets.
I m goin fast like a fading blonde
No time for nothing but goin, goin , goin - gone.
My brakes are failing, blasting through all the lights
My radiator s been blown since I was five.
The night is clinging and the sidewalks reel
My body s rusted, I m rotten, screaming steel.

Tire treads are smooth and hot
goin round.
Sirens wailing long and loud
but what s a man to do
If he can t slow down.

I m knockin , knockin underneath my hood.
Don t you inspect me, you know I just ain t no good.
I m spittin licorice in the D.M.Z.
Both sides sit helpless - ironic equality.

Like a warrior who fights without shield
I ll go down.
You ll see me smashed to bits in this town
long before I m due
Cause I can t slow down.
