Third Gear

[Verse]
Speeding, spending
Never ending
Got no hands on the wheel
Got my heart pinned to the dashboard
Going in now for the kill

[Refrain]
They're gonna cry
In the layby
They're gonna lie
In the layby
They're gonna die
In the layby
Tonight
Tonight

[Verse]
The virgin Mary smiles from the dashboard
This blessed machine
Manic bulldozers
Got my high heeled accelerator
The crucifixion

[Refrain]
They're gonna cry
In the layby
They're gonna lie
In the layby
They're gonna die
Tonight
Tonight

[Verse]
The night is thick
And the tarmac wet
The road is one way
Please place your bets
A fix of meths
Now I'm driving blind
Russian roulette on the motorway

[Refrain]
They're gonna cry
In the layby
They're gonna lie
In the layby
They're gonna die
In the layby
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight

[Verse]
Way to go, sweetheart
Wanna get one?
Come on, get in
That's my way too
You want a cigarette?
Want some music?
Want a drink?
I bet it's sweet
In the backseat

[Refrain]
They're gonna cry
In the layby
They're gonna die
In the layby
Tonight

[Verse]
Live in neutral
Drive in hope
Smash the gas tank
And get a rope
Tie up the body
In the boot
Light a fag in the petrol station

[Refrain]
They're gonna cry
In the layby
They're gonna lie
In the layby
They're gonna die
In the layby
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight

[Verse]
Here's a hand
Take it
Quick kiss
The plaster tears
There's a car
Drive it
Fake it for years

[Refrain]
They're gonna cry
In the layby
They're gonna lie
In the layby
Tonight
Tonight

[Verse]
If you see anything
Stay inside
Lock your doors
And stay at home
Where you are safe and where you're known

[Outro]
Tonight
Tonight
They're gonna cry
They're gonna cry
They're gonna cry
Tonight
Tonight
My baby rode into the darkness
My baby rode into the night
My baby's gonna be forgotten, tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Get here in a hurry
[?] come get me [?] get away [?]
Gonna cry, tonight
