Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Baby baby baby I thought you was mine Honey honey honey In my arms for all time But then a handsome stranger Bought your love for a dime Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere You spend your whole life waiting For someone to adore A gal with an evil mind Who knows what you are Might as well just walk out there In front of a car Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Tell me darling Are you worried? This emptiness Can't be buried The things that mean a lot to you Mean nothing to them The world you created Now is starting to dim The life you have built, you see Is vapid and grim Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere If only there was someone You could talk to at night When you're feeling lonely And you can't see no light All the things you thought were wrong Turns out they were right Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Tell me darling Are you worried? This emptiness Can't be buried Money that you gave me You ain't getting it back I don't care your father's heart It had an attack My empathy for humans It does certainly lack Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere You're acting like a cripple With no arms and no legs You drank all the cider Now you're down to the dregs Every stupid life is crushed Like hot boiled eggs Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Pedal to the metal and I'm headed nowhere Tell me darling Are you worried? This emptiness Can't be buried Can't be buried
