Lyrics

Speed King

Are we really going down? You're running with the speed king It's impossible to break you You've caught a glimpse of his star Are we really going down? Are you really gonna die? You're caught up in his sex games Are you running with the speed king? I saw the twinkle in your eyes (eyes, eyes, eyes) Are we really going down? You're running with the speed king It's impossible to break you You've caught a glimpse of his star
