  • (Know, know what I mean)

    Fast car, fast car
    I wanna meet your fast car
    Take me on a comet ride,
    Shoot me past the fast car
    I wish I owned that last car
    You could be the end to
    Everything my hearts asking for.

    Take me away
    (So, so, far away)
    I don't wanna feel no sorrow
    Take me away
    (So, so, far away)
    I might not see tomorrow.

    (Hey, hey)

    [Chorus]
    You tell me you can cure my addiction (addiction)
    And you tear my feet off the ground
    Every time I would forget my affliction (affliction)
    But I don't want to come down

    It's just the high that your givin' me (givin' me)
    Is worth a million tears and frowns
    It's just the high that your givin' me (givin' me)
    Is worth a million years on the ground.

    Take me up in your rocket ship
    Take me so so far away. (away)
    Let me forget all the good shit
    Take me so, so far away (away)

    I need a face that's not mine that fits me
    Just get me to forget misery
    Yes indeed we just be
    In misery yes indeed
    We just be up high

    When I'm with you
    When I'm with you

    [Chorus]

    It's just the high that your givin' me (givin' me)
    Is worth a million tears and frowns
    It's just the high that your givin' me (givin' me)
    Is worth a million years on the ground.

    You remind me of my Mercedes Benz
    For you I spend all my years
    You might wanna meet my friends
    And I might wanna have your kids
    I name 'em
    Shaniqua
    Bonita
    Rashawn
    And baby you can take me far away
    See the moon and the stars
    Now can't nobody do it like you do (what?)
    I admit you got to go (what?)
    Me and you, just us two
    Spread my love like a swine flu
    Ay, you got me high
    Wanna touch the sky
    You know you love me right?
    Lets sing this lullaby
    Yeah you could be my fast car
    Maybe be my jaguar
    Baby what you isn't are
    Make me see the moon and stars
    I wanna touch the moon
    Get some of this poom, poom
    Ride it like zoom, zoom
    Make him drop this fruit of the loom
    He want my peach fair
    Victoria underwear
    I love em, oh so swell
    And yep he love my fruit cocktail
    I keep it real baby
    I love em crazy baby
    I'm a name brand bitch
    She just don't need it baby
    You better stay with me
    Sexy is what I need
    I'm a F-A-S-T C-A-R M- ISS -E

    [Chorus]

    It's just the high that your givin' me (givin' me)
    Is worth a million tears and frowns
    It's just the high that your givin' me (givin' me)
    Is worth a million years on the ground.

    (High that your givin' me)
    (High that your givin' me)
    (High that your givin' me)
    (High that your givin' me)
    (High that your givin' me) Writer/s: ANDRE CHRISTOPHER LYON, DANA E. OWENS, DANA OWENS, MARCELLO VALENZANO, MELISSA A. ELLIOTT
