Shut up and RACE

November 20, 2008 //  by Horsepower & Heels

Every time I hear Rhianna’s Shut Up and Drive, I feel like climbing in a racecar.
Only in my version, I change the words:

Shut up and Race

If you’re looking for a driver who is qualified
So if you think I’m not the one, step up to the line
I’m a finetuned supersonic speed machine
With a heavy foot and an NHRA dream

So if you need me let me know, know, know
Come on now what you’re waiting for, for, for
My engine’s ready to explode, explode, explode
So line me up and watch me go, go, go, go

[chorus:] Shiftin straight through the gears, if you know what I mean
Got a ride that’s faster than you’ve ever seen
Can you handle the power, can you cut a good light
If ya can’t baby boy, then I’ll be outta sight
‘Cause I’m zero to two hundred in six point six-nine
You Wanna Race Me?
Shut up and drive, drive, drive, drive
Shut up and drive, drive, drive, drive

I got class wit a parachute in the back
Got all the boost and a whole lotta time on the track
You talk like you can handle what’s under my hood
You keep saying that you will, boy I wish you would

So if you wanna race let me know, know, know
Come on and what you’re waiting for, for, for
My engine is ready to explode, explode, explode
So line me up and watch me go, go, go, go

[chorus:] Getcha where you wanna go, if you know what I mean
Got a ride that’s faster than you’ve ever seen
Can you handle the power, can you cut a good light
If ya can’t baby boy, then I’ll be outta sight
‘Cause I’m zero to two hundred in six point six-nine
You Wanna Race Me?
Shut up and drive, drive, drive, drive
Shut up and drive, drive, drive, drive

Cause your chevy ain’t got what I’ve got
Get it get it, don’t stop, it’s a hole shot
Ain’t a ferrari, uh-oh boy, I’m sorry
Ain’t no need to worry, so step aside
And ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride…

So if you racing let me know, know, know
Come on now and what you’re waiting for, for, for
My engine is ready to explode, explode, explode
So start me up and watch me go, go, go, go

[chorus:] Getcha where you wanna go, if you know what I mean
Got a ride that’s faster than you’ve ever seen
Can you handle the power, can you cut a good light
If ya can’t baby boy, then I’ll be outta sight
‘Cause I’m zero to two hundred in six point six-nine
You Wanna Race Me?

Shut up and drive, drive, drive, drive
Shut up and drive, drive, drive, drive
Shut up and drive, drive, drive
Shut up and drive, drive, drive
Drive, drive, drive, drive, drive….

Maybe the Horsepower & Heels gals and I should redo the music video! haha

Any video gurus out there up for producing it?
