In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream | |
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines | |
Sprung from cages out on highway 9, | |
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected | |
and steppin' out over the line | |
Baby this town rips the bones from your back | |
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap | |
We gotta get out while we're young | |
`Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run | |
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend | |
I want to guard your dreams and visions | |
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims | |
and strap your hands across my engines | |
Together we could break this trap | |
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back | |
Will you walk with me out on the wire | |
`Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider | |
But I gotta find out how it feels | |
I want to know if love is wild | |
girl I want to know if love is real | |
Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard | |
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors | |
And the boys try to look so hard | |
The amusement park rises bold and stark | |
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist | |
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight | |
In an everlasting kiss | |
The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive | |
Everybody's out on the run tonight | |
but there's no place left to hide | |
Together Wendy we'll live with the sadness | |
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul | |
Someday girl I don't know when | |
we're gonna get to that place | |
Where we really want to go | |
and we'll walk in the sun | |
But till then tramps like us | |
baby we were born to run |
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream | |
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines | |
Sprung from cages out on highway 9, | |
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected | |
and steppin' out over the line | |
Baby this town rips the bones from your back | |
It' s a death trap, it' s a suicide rap | |
We gotta get out while we' re young | |
Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run | |
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend | |
I want to guard your dreams and visions | |
Just wrap your legs ' round these velvet rims | |
and strap your hands across my engines | |
Together we could break this trap | |
We' ll run till we drop, baby we' ll never go back | |
Will you walk with me out on the wire | |
Cause baby I' m just a scared and lonely rider | |
But I gotta find out how it feels | |
I want to know if love is wild | |
girl I want to know if love is real | |
