lyrics

I got twelve hundred dollars with thoughts and prayers and pride
It’s just enough to cover my right to hide inside
I met my best friend downtown and had this great idea
We entered in a competition and placed our bets
We took twelve hundred dollars and bet it all away
Got on our rusty moped and entered in a motorcycle race

Well I’ve got my wheels and I’ve got my ride
And I’ve got my eyes on the mountainside
I’m gonna go fast
Win first prize

Cause I’ve got my wheels and I’ve got my ride
And I’ve got my eyes on the mountainside
I’m gonna go fast
Win first place
At the motorcycle race

Well that’s a big boy on my right
I better get out of his line of sight
But he popped a wheelie and he blew sky high
And that’s the last we’ve seen of that guy

Cause I’ve got my wheels and I’ve got my ride
And I’ve got my eyes on the mountainside
I’m gonna go fast
Win first prize

Cause I’ve got my wheels and I’ve got my ride
And I’ve got my eyes on the mountainside
I’m gonna go fast
Win first place
At the motorcycle race

It is a beautiful day for a race ladies and gentlemen and those between the poles!
We have tens of thousands of participants in our little competition today
And, wait, oh no I’m wrong, what’s this?
Why it looks like they’ve all gone careening into a gorge and
Dead, dead dead DEAD, oh NO!
Everyone forfeits by way of death!
All but two young upstarts who look to be riding yesterday’s garbage on wheels?
Over they go, over the bodies of their competitors,
They’re approaching the final turn, but what’s this?
Our heroes are being pursued by a streak of white nationalism on a souped up Harley,
Will they prevail?

Well the man in black with a whip at his side
He’s got a bone to pick, probably over white pride
So I go fast
Get away from that guy

He took his gun, he shot at the wheel
But it hit the logo which was made of steel
And so it bounced back
Hit him in the face

At the motorcycle race
(We’re so fast)
Motorcycle race
(And not last)
Motorcycle race
(Almost died)
Motorcycle race
(So close to the finish line)

Cause I’ve got my wheels and I’ve got my ride
And I’ve got my eyes on the mountainside
I’m gonna go fast
Win first prize

Cause against all odds we’re ahead of the pack
With a fire in our hearts and the wind at our back
And I will go fast
Win first place
At the motorcycle race
