Cover art for Drag lyrics by Adventures of Jet, The

Wow. WAY off. I have to correct it, or I'll die...And I don't know how this song could mean ANYTHING to you if you don't know what they're saying. Drag racing, love. Drag racing.

(Note to the world: To get correct lyrics, all you have to do is look at the liner notes that come with the album.)

I'm not afraid to race you I never had to chase you around But tonight won't be the night you've counted all Your blessings for. 390 Hurst! Now that's new. If all was right, the Rambler would do But tonight I've found the competition I've been waiting for.

She came from East Lansing, Michigan That was the end of racing, man.

I don't want to drag tonight No, I'm not in the mood for a fight It just wouldn't be right for a young suicide In love again.

I know it's hard to fathom. How could I turn my back on a Tri-Powered Tiger, blue and built for Chasing all pretense away. When she gets cold, she's still fun. July? She won't put out in the sun. She's got eyes of Big Bad Green that Put my Tiger's lights to shame.

The girl from East Lansing, Michigan. That was the end of racing, man.

Chorus

Mock it on your way back home When the motor stops and you're all alone You dream about the things that you've been Racing for. You'll know why I don't want to drive tonight. One day, you will know what it's like. When everything's all right For a young suicide in love...

Chorus

whew Much better.
