Speed Parade

They come and they go when they want me
 I sit and I wait my turn
 I want to let go but I can't see
 All I know is from what I've learned
 Hitchhiker born to the side of the road
 Got your thumb out, climb in
 Shut your mouth, and do what you're told
 This is where the ride begins
 Heads up, the mountain's comin' down
 Like a ball and chain
 Stand up, the best is all around
 The question is would you like to calm the insane
 It goes on and on, just like a speed parade
 It goes on and on, 'til the tail lights reached my head
 Here lies a rude instigator or so he says
 Is he movin', movin', movin', movin'
 Or does he lie there and just play dead?
 Heads up, the mountain's comin' down
 Like a ball and chain
 Stand up, the best is all around
 The question is would you like to calm the insane
 It goes on and on, just like a speed parade
 It goes on and on, 'til the driver drops dead
 Gotta get on the road or get on your knees
 See the boy play, he plays for speed
 Faster boy, put your foot on the floor
 Salivating, he just wants more
 Here come the calm with the bold insane
 I can feel it like a ball and chain
 When the question stands, does the shit remain?
 It goes on and on, just like a speed parade
 It goes on and on, 'til the tail lights reached my head
