1. Ban Them All - MC Max Max(i) Mosley "Priest"
Hear Me Now!
This is MC Max Maxi Mosley Priest
Well the GPMA forgot to say please, so me hit them hard with an engine freeze.
When they in scrutineering they not happy campers,
me banned their flexi-wings and me banned their mass dampers

Mass dampers, ban them all.

Me worry ‘bout the speed when the laps are flyers,

2. The Ballad Of Juan Pablo Montoya – JPM
Well lemme tell ya story ‘bout Formula One,
I used to crash a lot when I work for Ron.
But he not so happy he say you go too far.
Me say get lost Ron or me going to NASCAR

3. On The Pit Wall - Jean Todt
Bonsoir Madame et Mesures
When I won at Le Mans, people said Jean,
That Peugeot 907 it really must be heaven,
I said no, I must go to Italy, to Ferrari to run the show
With Montezemolo
I am not a big man (by any standards)
but when I stand on the pit wall I am a giant.
I will win championships, with British engineering
and make the greatest champion of all.
From my position on the pit wall.

4. Do You Like? - Flavio Briatore
Hey come on lets do this thing
Do you like formula one, do you like Gucci shoes?
You want a pass for Monaco?
You like Benetton?
Oh come on baby
I’ve got class, I’ve got soul,
I’ve seen Naomi Campbell’s bullet hole.

5. Rhymin' MC DC - David Coulthard
My face is square and my wallet is full
Wanna drive for Ferrari but I’m stuck with Red Bull
I’ve got a flat in Monaco but if that’s not where I am,
coz I own some hotels and one’s in Nottingham.
It doesn’t really matter that my racing car sucks,
coz you should see my range of shaving products
Och aye the noo muddy funsters
Mad props to my Mateschitz, he’s my mate and he’s the …..

6. I'm In Love With The ACO – Big Audi Dynamite
Uh-huh, yeah, everybody say it’s French.
Well there’s a race in France to which you’ve got to go,
it runs for 24 hours (that’s long you know)
The Circuit de la Sarthe ain’t exactly slow,
on the Mulsanne straight you can get a tow.
But not from the RAC, from the ACO.
(Lemme tell you ‘bout it)
The ACO, the ACO I’m in love with Le Mans and the ACO
The ACO, the ACO I’m in love with Le Mans and the ACO

7. Natural Born Racer - Ralf Schumacher
I’m a natural born racer not as talented as my brother,
See me on the dance floor looking fine,
that three year contract should have been mine.
Loud and proud race for the day, Oh I don’t care what people say
I hear them smear and that’s OK
just whatever you do don’t say that I’m ….
Hey hey hey.
Don’t say that I’m gay – no way
I’m a natural born racer not as talented as my brother,
I drive like a nut and love like a mother.
You know I’m Michael’s little brother,
My name is Ralf,
Ya das is gut.

8. Definitely (Updated post Hungary win) - Jenson Button
I’m on top of the world
I’m literally covered in girls
You won’t find me looking glum
Now I’ve seen the top bit of the podium
No more people laughing at me
No more breaking down on lap 23
One win, now I’m a hit
Just a month ago everyone thought I was ….

Jenson Jenson, your excuses were repetitive
Definitely
Jenson, Jenson, but now you are competitive

You won in Hungary, and that was weird
You could have been even faster if you had lost that beard
You kept it on the island when the track was wet
Now for heaven’s sake Button go and buy a Gillette.
Definitely.

Formula One, Formula One,
Formula One, Formula One is everything.

It’s the driver, It’s the car, It’s the race, It’s the pretty girl
It’s the driver, It’s the car, It’s the race
It’s the making love

Formula One is the drink, it’s the yacht,
you know it’s like it’s jewellery,
this is all ingredient.
Probably Also is the private jet also it is ……
maybe it is more thing than this
very important for formula one

It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the pretty girl
It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the making love
making love, making love, making love, making love, yes.

It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the pretty girl
It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the making love

Make the race make the star make the fun, yes.
Make the race make the star make the fun, yes.
Make the race make the star make the fun, yes.
Make the race make the star make the fun, yes.

It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the pretty girl
It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the making love

It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the pretty girl
It’s the driver, it’s the car, it’s the race, it’s the making love

Formula One is everything.
