Got off the train last week,
Straight back in the driving seat –
It’s been too long.
You’ve written me off before,
Never had so much to prove to myself… or you
But I’ve got to win the Monaco
I’ve got to win the Monaco
I’ve got to win the Monaco
Then try to win you back.
D’you hear the engines roar?
How things progress so fast…
One day they’ll go faster than Superman
The starting flag has dropped,
I’m flying down the straight
Hope the brakes don’t fail
Could you stop me anyway?
