5ive Gears In Reverse lyrics

five gears in reverse
girls looking for the big lift
somebody send out for the night nurse
please don`t stick me on the late shift

if you don`t know by now
nobody`s going to tell you
if you don`t know by now
the shock will probably kill you

CHORUS:
and if your patience is exhausted
and you still cannot decide
you`re sitting in a garage
contemplating suicide
and you have no motivation
you can`t even catch your breath
all the business and celebrations
is driving you to debt

five gears in reverse
you think I don`t know what I`m doing
and at a fashionable first
like walking down the road to ruin
but if you`re safe and sound
don`t let me interrupt you
And if you don`t go down
How could I corrupt you

chorus
