(D. Pickerill/P. O´Donoughue)

You stop on a red light, your life starts again on green
You watch all the colours then fall back into a dream

There´s headlights behind you, they flash out a silver surprise
You go for the hand brake, there´s madness behind your eyes
Chorus:
The road goes on for mile and miles
You rush ´cos you haven´t got the time
Stop, stop, stop for the red light
Yay, yay, yay is for the green
One, one, one I´m on a blue light
Keep your licence clean

He flicks on the amber, a machine gun in all but name
You push down the lever, well, two can play that game
As red lights rush by you they´re vivid and red as blood

The chase makes you feel so good

The road goes on for mile and miles
You rush ´cos you haven´t got the time
Don´t, don´t don´t go on a red light
Yay, yay, yay is for the green
One, one, one I´m on a blue light
Keep your licence clean

The flash lines are flowing, streaking by so fast
Signposts are flying and grey rain is slanting past
The colours are spinning, a pain on the side of your face
And blackness surrounds you, you finally lost the race

The road goes on for mile and miles

You rush ´cos you haven´t got the time
Don´t, don´t don´t go on a red light
Yay, yay, yay wait for the green
One, one, one I´m on a blue light
Keep your licence clean
