Newton's little secret is he didn't know a thing. He never drank and tried to drive. He never felt the zing.
And Sue and Steve and Sally, too, are going for a ride. And the squirrels and pedestrians they better run and hide.
For life is just too short and the buzz is not so long. So we better enjoy the moment before it all goes wrong.
Cause youth is just like death, life is over when it stops. So be my acceleration and I'll be your clutch.

Heretics and derelicts are sleeping on the side Of David and Goliath who have purchased a new ride.
A brand new Barracuda that can make the ladies shake but the neighbors say the noise is just too much to take.
And Stalin's getting words from the engine crew; He's worked away the spirit and the fuel injector too.
Cause when he's drives mad he kills a couple fans and that's never good for market value.

So Sue, Steve and Sally have been out for a spin. They've mixed a little radio with a few shots of gin.

Remote controlled reporters swarm around the hive and lonely paramedics check to see if they're alive.
But they have long since gone and left their skin behind. You can't take it with you, they say.

"Boredom's just a flesh wound," the artist, he screams. He's washing car windows, and wiping his dreams.
The man in the driver's seat is harvesting his pain, while the woman sitting next to him is going insane.
And the traffic lights are crying, while the flares are burning low
The police have all been trampled and the wax has lost its glow.
And every young child has been taught in fight or flight.
But their wings have long been broken.

Newton's little secret is he didn't know a thing. He never drank and tried to drive. He never felt the zing.
And Sue and Steve and Sally, too, are going for a ride and the squirrels and pedestrians they better run and hide.
For life is just too short and the buzz is not so long. So we better enjoy the moment before it all goes wrong.
Cause youth is just like death, life is over when it stops and death could stop and visit any day.
