lyrics
------
verse
-----
Watching the thin white lines slipping past my wheels
and the hip cool trendies in their automobiles
Reaching 90mph and with fuel to burn
I'm on 90mph and i'll never learn.
I've been driving now for 22 hours or so
my eyes are getting droopy and i've nowhere to go
So i'll carry on driving til i reach the end
and i'll carry on driving cos i'm willin to offend.
pre-chorus
----------
How many times have you lived your life
Better make it something or just go for a drive
It's not your own reflection, been like this since i's 5
Betray your own emotions and get out and survive
chorus
------
cos none can tell you who you are
it's not so hard to see
please try to be like me
so live your life and make it worth your while
there's so much more to do
than what's honest and true
verse
-----
So i'll carry on driving across the land of the free
and i'll stop wondering 'bout where i really should be
Why should i stop driving at the end of the line?
why should i stop driving, it's only quarter to five.
bridge
------
dullboy highway
dullboy listen to me
dullboy stand in the way
dullboy on the highway
thank you for your time!
enjoy
