Xiu Xiu - Fast Car lyrics

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we will make smth
But me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at East side`s health & childrens centre
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won´t have to drive too far
Just across the border & into the city
You & I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living

You see my old man´s got a problem
He live with prescription drugs & that is the way it´s
He says his body´s too old for working
I say his body´s too young to look like his
My mama went off & left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody´s got to take care of him
So I quit life & that is what I did

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We´ve got to make a decision
We leave tonight or live & die this way

remember we were driving driving in your car
speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
I had a feeling that I belonged
I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still dont have a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You will find work & I will get promoted
We will move out of the shelter
Buy a big house & live in the suburbs

remember we were driving driving in your car
speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
I had a feeling that I belonged
I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do your kids
I would always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you & me would find it
I got no plans I aint going nowhere
So take your fast car & keep on driving

remember we were driving driving in your car
speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
I had a feeling that I belonged
I had feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We´ve got to make a decision
We leave tonight or live & die this way
