Whiplash caught the silver son
                      
Took the film to No. I
                               
Crashed the car and left us here


                                                     
Broken glass for teenage boys 
                             
trapped in steel and celluloid
                               
Crashed the car and left us here.


                             
And daddy burned a million eyes
                          
Dared the dogs to criticise
                               
He crashed the car and I was born

                             
And daddy turned a million heads
                            
Took the teenage dream to bed
                                
He crashed the car and left us here


                     
With dreams of gasoline drying our eyes
                             
Green fields of destiny high in the sky

               
But oh can you see him?
             
Oh Daddy's speeding
