CAR CRASH LYRICS
I got myself together I got myself in check
I made myself a member Got myself out the red
I upgraded my upgrade Give us our daily bread
I got paid on payday Now I dress well-fed
I clearly won the friendly Left my opponent dead
I got the keys to the lambo I took a walk instead
I am the prophecy I did not come from nothing And nothing came from me
I took your name in vain I burnt your effigy
I chewed up your story Some tush between my teeth
The fear’s gargantuan Don’t like what I can see
Racist prick on the right side No one to trust on the left
So I put my foot on overdrive Close my eyes and press
Definitely I’ll have a dab man You know I am a dab hand
Super strength superman I’ll have a stab and can-can
Don’t forget I’m a champ man Pound for pound gram for gram
I’ll smash that double barrel mitsubishi Back to Amsterdam
Crash bang wallop on the afghan Then I rise like a phoenix from the dashcam
AAAAAAAAARGH Smash
I’m a car crash
I got myself together I got myself in check
You caught me on my knees Knees are raw red
You caught me on all fours Smooching the floor
No metaphor My thoughts are piss poor
My glass-jaw held open the door Chin to tarmac
I’m serious Jack As a heart attack
No life, no help, nobody Was where I’m at
Smash swing glisten As everything turns black
My feet leave the ground As my wings start to flap
Cold goes to warm As my top gets blood damp my oh my I can feel the raw Flesh on the bottom of the footwell floor
Flash! Flash! Everything is turning to black ash
Smash I’m a car crash
I can feel my eyes vibrate I can feel my eyes vibrate I can feel my eyes vibrate I can feel my eyes vibrate
