Lyrics

check! check! check!
check! check! check!

Blast off!! Kick into the overdrive
Gliding through deep into the night
You can try but no one beats me
Not a single soul can run in front of me

Dead hot! Take it to the red zone
No way will I give up my throne
All I see are the lights that try by
Nothing ever makes me feel so high

r.p.m.RED
Can you beat your own pulse?
r.p.m.RED
No one ever beats the speed king

Show time! Take it to the red zone
No way will I give up my throne
Passing through he lights that fly by
Not a single soul can run in fsont of me
Not a single soul overruns me

r.p.m.RED

check! check! check!

check! check! check!
check! check! check!
