Metal Firecracker Lyrics
Once we rode together
In a metal firecracker
You told me I was your queen
You told me I was your biker
You told me I was your everything
Once I was in your blood
And you were obsessed with me
You wanted to paint my picture
You wanted to undress me
You wanted to see me in your future
All I ask
Don't tell anybody the secrets
Don't tell anybody the secrets
I told you (repeat)
Once you held me so tight
I thought I'd lose my mind
You said I rocked your world
You said it was for all time
You said that I would always be your girl
We'd put on ZZ Top
and turn 'em up real loud
I used to think you were strong
I used to think you were proud
I used to think nothing could go wrong
Chorus 2x
In a metal firecracker
You told me I was your queen
You told me I was your biker
You told me I was your everything
And you were obsessed with me
You wanted to paint my picture
You wanted to undress me
You wanted to see me in your future
Don't tell anybody the secrets
Don't tell anybody the secrets
I told you (repeat)
I thought I'd lose my mind
You said I rocked your world
You said it was for all time
You said that I would always be your girl
and turn 'em up real loud
I used to think you were strong
I used to think you were proud
I used to think nothing could go wrong
Often the hardest thing about losing someone is losing that bit of yourself they take with them. So all you ask is that they don't tell anybody the secrets you told them. Another gem from LW. She always finds an angle nobody has thought of before.
conor oberst does a fantastic cover of this song.
