Lyrics

Am I on a trip to nowhere
In a madcap taxi on fire?
Got no brakes
Got no signpost
Waiting for the big bump
It's getting too late to jump

(Look out)
Car out of control
(Look out)
Man out of control
(Look out)
Car out of control
We don't know which way we're going

Am I on a road to somewhere?
It's a place where nobody goes
Passersby give directions
But the driver's fallen asleep
And the passenger's counting his sheep

(Look out)
Car out of control
(Look out)
Man out of control
(Look out)
Car out of control
We don't know which way we're going

I'm running over people's toes
but they don't know it's me that's hit them
I'm crashing into other cars
I'm seeing stars but where's the victim?

I am speeding to a clifftop
No hope of stopping in time
Bound and gagged in the backseat
Looking for reason and rhyme
Looking for reason and rhyme

(Look out)
Car out of control
(Look out)
Man out of control
(Look out)
Car out of control
We don't know which way we're going

[Thanks to Garry Fishpool]
