The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Driving fast and ditching school, breaking all the precious rules.

It's too hard, to make a living.

I need a kick, I need a girl so badly I could scream.

I'm sick of watching people on T.V.

I feel the wind, in my face

I need a car at the start of the race

I need a highway and a beer

If I don't stop now there's plenty to fear

(Chorus)

Hold Me back, oh won't you hold me back

I can get violent any time

Hold me back, I feel another attack

Brewing deep inside

Hold Me Back, oh won't you Hold me back.

Hold Me Back, oh won't you hold me back

Hold Me Back

Teacher doesn't understand,

Just how dangerous I am.

I need a break, from the world

Now more than ever, I need it good

I need something I can taste

And a vacation from the human race

I need money, I need it bad

If I don't have it, I get mad

If I get mad I do such terrible things

I get real crazy and I make girls scream.
