On “Getaway Car,” Yoe Mase reflects on about their romantic partner and how he wants to run away from their life problems together. Weather it’s a metaphor for how they feel like they can take the world if they are together or if they literally want to escape their lives, “Getaway Car” explores them...
[Verse 1]
Hey, I got something to say
I don't mind running if I'm running away from here
Away from here (ay, ay)
Hey, I don't mind running away
Sometimes it's a negative place out here
Yeah, oh (ay, ay)
[Pre-Chorus]
Is this what it feels like to be free?
I don't mind running if you're running with me, oh yeah
Run away from it all, ohh
Living in your car, but I'm never alone
At least I got you, honey and I know you're my home, oh yeah
At least I got you, babe
[Refrain]
(Ay!)
(Ay!)
[Chorus]
Let go, gonna drive down the thruway
Yeah, I know; gonna speed up in a getaway car
And everybody's got so many goddamn opinions
So let's go, do you need to know where we are?
[Post-Chorus]
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car (uh)
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
[Verse 2]
Wait, do you feel too young
To have this much damn anxiety?
No, no, no (ay, ay)
Hey, let's leave this city behind
Everyone I know is busy losing their minds out there
Oh-woo-woo-oh (damn opinions)
[Pre-Chorus]
Is this what it feels like to be free?
Walking on the streets, I got nowhere to be right now
Somehow
Living in your car, but I'm never alone
Got you on my mind and your voice on my phone right now (somehow)
[Chorus]
Let go, gonna drive down the thruway
Yeah, I know; gonna speed up in a getaway car
And everybody's got so many goddamn opinions
So let's go, do you need to know where we are?
[Bridge]
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
Start to getaway, to getaway
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
To getaway, to getaway
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
Start to getaway, to getaway
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
To getaway, to getaway
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
To getaway, to getaway
(Getaway, getaway, getaway car)
[Chorus]
Let go, gonna drive down the thruway
Yeah, I know; gonna speed up in a getaway car
And everybody's got so many goddamn opinions
So let's go, do you need to know where we are?
[Post-Chorus]
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
Getaway, getaway, getaway car
