Talkin' 'bout a hot-wired kid who thought he knew it all
|
And what he didn't know, he didn't need to
|
Changin' women like tires when their use wore thin
|
Retread feelings, that's all we knew
|
He's been runnin' lights for years, grindin' down those forward gears
|
He's got a lady in the back seat, lady in the front seat
|
Eyes on the road and whispers in both ears
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
One too many girlfriends, and too little feeling left
|
He better find the one, he's gonna take on the run, before it runs him down
|
He's got far too many choices, he better make a few of them
|
He wants to have it all, and wind up standin' tall
|
I hope his dream never ends, I guess it just depends
|
He's got one too many girlfriends
|
|
Well there's so damn much writin' written on his walls
|
I can't imagine that he doesn't read it
|
Such a loud clear message screaming through the halls
|
Keep your advice, he don't need it
|
He's heard of living up to the truth, thinks it means giving up his youth
|
He doesn't wanna get a haircut, looking for a shortcut
|
He needs a change, he needs more than a phone booth
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Whooo, there's anger and romance at every turn
|
Whooo, be careful boy that you don't crash and burn
|
You're in about as deep as you can get
|
It's a matter of time before you get wet
|
I wouldn't be in your shoes on a bet
|
|
[Solo]
|
|
He's been runnin' lights for years, grindin' down those forward gears
|
He's got a lady in the back seat, lady in the front seat
|
Eyes on the road and whispers in both ears
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
He's got one too many girlfriends... look out!
