Lyrics
We slip on the vinyl
We shimmer to shine
Slide on the chrome and plastic
The hum of the powerlines
Sum of a love
Come trip the light fantastic
Singing:
Do I drive?
Or am I driven?
Can I brake
What I've been given?
Take a walk
Turn
Talk
Or crash and burn
Everybody get a wife, I got mine
She's kneeling on the backseat, feeling fine, she's
Married to a soldier in the army of the Rhine, but
He don't know so he don't mind, she says
Do I drive?
Or am I driven?
Can I brake
What I've been given?
Turn
Talk
Or crash and burn
Slip on the vinyl
Shimmer to shine
Sing:
Do I drive?
Or am I driven?
Can I brake
What I've been given?
Take a walk
Turn
Talk
Or crash and burn
