Lyrics:

[English]

Gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire

Ooh!

Yeah!

Turn on, I see red

Adrenaline crash and crack my head

Nitro junkie, paint me dead

And I see red

A hundred plus through black and white

Warhorse, warhead

Fuck 'em man, white-knuckle tight

Through black and white

Ooh, on I burn

Fuel is pumping engines

Burning hard, loose, and clean

And on I burn, churning my direction

Quench my thirst with gasoline

So gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire

Yeah

Turn on beyond the bone

Swallow future, spit out home

Burn your face upon the chrome

Yeah-he-hey, oh yeah

Take the corner, join the crash

Headlights (head on), headlines

Another junkie lives too fast

Yeah, lives way too fast- oh-oh

Ooh, on I burn

Fuel is pumping engines

Burning hard, loose, and clean

And on I burn, churning my direction

Quench my thirst with gasoline

So gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire

Ooh, ye-heah

White-knuckle tight

Give me fuel (on I burn, on and on)

Give me fire (on I burn, on and on)

My desire (on I burn, on and on)

Ooh, on I burn

Fuel is pumping engines

Burning hard, loose, and clean

And on I burn, churning my direction

Quench my thirst with gasoline

Gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme that which I desire

Ooh

On I burn
