Getting warm, getting warmer
Getting closer to the answer
I was working on my grammar
I was driving in my Chevy
Verse
It was fast, but not the fastest
I was listening to Cactus
Man you really gotta practice
If you wanna get that heavy
Verse
She was there, on the highway
And her eyes said, â??Going my way?â?
And I loved her in an instant
Like a Turkish cymbal crashes
Verse
Getting high and getting higher
Was it smoke or true desire?
Did we start that forest fire?
As we flicked away the ashes
Bridge
Headlights flash in the passing lane
Trying to fill the tank with a little loose change
The North Star
Old men dream of nights like these
Pine trees swaying in the clear cool breeze
The North Star
Verse
It got dark, it got darker
I got high on a permanent marker
Man, I felt like Peter Parker
And my spidey sense was tingling
Verse
I fell apart, at the party
Drinking red wine and Bacardi
My constitution ainâ??t that hardy
And Iâ??m not much good at mingling
Verse
The wind blew, yeah, it was blowing
And I said â??Baby, now where we going?â?
A rooster started crowing
And the sun was coming up
Verse
And the dawn, it was brilliant
Weâ??re were listening to Marillion
I screamed rock and rollâ??s resilient
Then I started throwing up
Bridge
Good times flash in the memory lane
Every second bandâ??s got an animal name
The North Star
Young men dream of nights like this
The clamour of the glamour or whatever it is
The North Star
Verse
Me and her we were meandering
(solo)
I was spinning round her curves
Verse
I was blind, cause she was blinding
While the mix tape was rewinding
I was busy stone cold rhyming
I was getting on her nerves
Verse
Then she spoke, so she was speaking
Said, â??Iâ??m the someone youâ??ve been seeking â??
The odometer was freaking
We was driving my Chevy
Verse
Half a mil, half a million
We were listening to Neil Young
Man, you gotta shoot to kill em
If you wanna get that heavy
Instrumental (same as verse)
Verse
Love rattles on like a tambourine
Every red lightâ??s gonna turn to green
Lightning bolt from the sky could fly
Iâ??m not gonna say goodbye
Ending
The North Star
