Freedom in Wheels

I grew up where the killer moose roam
20 miles to school and 40 back home
Life wasn't easy on the countryside, but
Sometimes my sister took me for a ride
So I left our shack; got out of the bog
Longing for concrete; longing for smog

I see freedom; freedom in wheels
I know how chromium feels
If you can't take a little air pollution
Well, stop breathing is the only solution
The thing I need to deliver my soul
A dashboard equipped with a cruise control

Tried a few things, among them including
Hold-ups, walk-ups, and drive-by shootings
Then I fell in love with four tons of steel
A full-sized car with fins and four wheels
She was so pretty; got tears in my eyes
Plush interior and fluffy dice

I see freedom; freedom in wheels
I know how chromium feels
If you can't take a little air pollution
Well, stop breathing is the only solution
The thing I need to deliver my soul
A dashboard equipped with a cruise control

A sweet, soft evening in the middle of June
The engine's humming my favourite tune
My car is fast and my eyes are shiny
I tell all the girls they can kiss my heinie
The ozone layer may be gone tomorrow
But where I go my car will follow

I see freedom; freedom in wheels
I know how chromium feels
If you can't take a little air pollution
Well, stop breathing is the only solution
The thing I need to deliver my soul
A dashboard equipped with a cruise control
