The Crash Lyrics by David Baerwald

Here Comes the New Folk Underground

0

Rachel got into the back seat
Cut her knee on broken glass
Tore her stockings on the ashtray
Let the air flow through her hands
We were far so far from sober
We were driving much too fast
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
And we crashed
We crashed
Metal hurts so when it hits you
Flesh & bone like hand blown glass
Like a harpy trying to kiss you
Protects you nothing, then you crash
Rachel stopped and looked me over
She asked me where she knew me last
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
And we crashed
Oh my baby are you hurt?
Oh my baby are you burned?
Let me kiss and make it better
Let me kiss and make it better
Let me kiss and make it better
Let me kiss and make it better
Better
Rachel came crying forgive me
Can you make it go away?
Can you get your sweet
Smooth skin back?
Is it just too late for that?
We were so far, far from sober
We were driving much too fast
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
Slip slide we were taking a ride
