Driving faster
Driving past the scenery
A real t.v.
in other words, comparing looking out the winshield to looking at tv screen, but what she sees is real, not transmitted image

You sir, are a hero! It's been a real task to try to hear those words! Well do you have some device that turns down the music and just keeps the vocals? I've heard of those! I know some songs are put up on youtube that way, too! Here's what we got now, hopefully this is now complete although I am taking a guess at the elusive and as of yet unreleased extra verse. Speeding (B-Side)I can't explain the way I feel Each time I get behind the wheel The rush of blood comes As the power surges And my right foot urges The car to push on through the night Driving faster Driving past the scenery A real T.V. I feel the speed and I don't dream of Driving slow some other time One thing I'm certain that I know All I want to do is go go go Everything is rushing by My heart is pounding deep inside Got to match the engine's pace Win imaginary race - yeah! Driving faster Driving past the scenery A real T.V. When I feel as though I've Got to control my Reckless need to speed and speed And speed And speed And speed And speed... Live Version (a bit raw, some flubbed words)Live Version (a bit better sounding)with: I can't explain the reason why I can't slow down although I try The fast and free Way late at night compels me To take a flight And who am I to say no? |

What a task it will be to correct all the lyrics sites.

What a task it will be to correct all the lyrics sites. Sometimes the original lyrics submitted to ASCAP or BMI are incorrect. Or... Michelle Phillips, on California Dreaming and the lyric, "and I began to pray." "We were on the road after the song was a hit and I was a doing a sound check with Cass [Elliot], and I sang the lyric. She looked at me and said, 'Wait, what did you say? I thought the lyric was 'I pretend to pray.' That's how she had been singing it all along!" |

She looked at me and said, 'Wait, what did you say? I thought the lyric was 'I pretend to pray.' That's how she had been singing it all along!" In all the lyrics sites on this particular song, that one line is showing as "on pretty view" and it would have made more sense as "a pretty view" but when you hear it, that's not what she's singing. "A real T.V." sounds like what she's singing there. Although the way she drawls out the word "T.V." especially the "T" making it sound a little like she's pronouncing "Tu" is a little strange, it still makes far more sense and sounds very much like what she's singing there. In the live version, it's even harder to understand some words in that extra verse. So I put what I was hearing. I wish they would have released the whole song as an album track. I really like their songs. They are all good. |
