Lyrics

Speed Demon (Michael Jackson)

I’m headed for the border
It’s on my mind
And nothin’ really matters
I’ve got to be on time
Look in the view mirror
Is he hot on my tracks
Is he getting nearer
I feel some heat
Is on my back

(Speed demon)
Speedin’ on the freeway
Gotta get a leadway
(Speed demon)
Doin’ it on the highway
Gotta have it my way
(Speed demon)
Mind is like a compass
I’m stoppin’ at nothin’
(Speed demon)
Yo, pull over, boy
And get your ticket right

And nothin’ gonna stop me
Ain’t no stop and go
I’m speedin’ on the midway
I gotta really burn this road

(Speed demon)
Speedin’ on the freeway
Gotta get a leadway
(Speed demon)
Doin’ it on the highway
Gotta have it my way
(Speed demon)
Mind is like a compass
I’m stoppin’ at nothin’
(Speed demon)
Just pull over, boy
And get your ticket right

Speed demon
You’re the very same one
Who said, ‘The future’s in your hands
The life you save could be your own’
You’re preachin’ ’bout my life
Like you’re the law
Gonna live each day and hour like
For me there’s no tomorrow
Go! Go! Go!

(Speed demon)
Speedin’ on the freeway
Gotta get a leadway
(Speed demon)
Got fire in my pocket
I just lit a rocket
(Speed demon)
Just pull over, boy
And get your ticket right
(Speed demon)
Pull over, boy
And get your ticket right
(Speed demon)
Just pull over, boy
And eat your ticket
Pull over, boy
Pull over, boy
And get your ticket right

Get your ticket right
Pull over, boy
Get your ticket right
Pull over, boy
And get your ticket right
Pull over, boy
Pull over, boy
And get your ticket
Eat your ticket
Get your ticket
Eat yo
Get yo
Get your ticket right
