Текст песни Slade - Ready To Explode

Sitting here in my mean machine - I'm ready to explode


Looking out of my helmet at the faces


I been wondering all night long - If I will live or die


Yeah, it's always the same before the races


I got some hot line information


About the man who's occupation is driving the cars


Standing out there on the grid


And it's a kind of fascination - And it demands full concentration


The kind of a job


We all dreamed of as a kid


I can see on the track ahead - the heat is rising high


Gotta win for the team and it's never easy


I been feeling the butterflies - strapped into my seat


Yeah, and already the tension's getting to me


We're waiting in anticipation


For some official indication - They're ready to go


Revving up and hit the road


'Cause it's another big occasion


And there won't be no relaxation - They're ready to go


And they're Ready To Explode


You're gonna drive 'em round the bend


Have a go on the chicane


Gonna drive 'em round the bend


Without a warning - Ready Now To Explode


Who's gonna be the big sensation?


Who'll be the champion of the nation?


In one of them cars - Standing out there on the grid


He's gonna get a big ovation


Be the champion of the nation


The kind of a thrill we all dreamed of as a kid


I don't wanna break down


And I wanna explode


Don't let me break down


I wanna explode


Ever since I was just thirteen, I had a crazy, reoccuring dream


To be faster than the speed of sound


It was the only way to get around, oh yeah


(Speeding in my dreams)


Seventeen and I passed my test - Never settling for second best


I knew right away what I'd like


It was a 750 motorbike, oh yeah


(Speeding in my dreams)


I was living for speed


Explode
