The Wranglers – No More Motor Racing Heroes
Any More (I need more) Grip
They think they’re going ‘round the bend
Sliding on a corner which doesn’t have an end
The front is loose and it starts to slip
They need a car with much more grip
(Get a grip on yourself more like)
CHORUS
So they’re driving in the sewer with a foot hard to
the floor
Coz they are no more motor racing heroes any more
No more motor racing heroes anymore.
Rubbin’ rubber on the gravel
Gotta get his lap times down
His tyres are sticky when they’re hot and black
But slippy when they’re cold and brown (cold and brown).
Fastest ‘round the circuit, got the quickest time
Gently on the throttle, nice and easy does it off the line
(Nice and easy does it off the line)
CHORUS
I’m disillusioned with the drivers, some are just piss
poor
There are no more motor racing heroes anymore.
No more motor
racing heroes anymore.
If you’re close enough to pass him
There or there about
Don’t take him in the corners
Get him when the road straightens out.
If you want to gain, improve your game,
You gotta feel the pain
Just in case you win the race
Something better change.
(Yeah I’m ready to make some changes
Let’s make some changes.)
Given up, on Sakon Yamamoto,
Let down by Antonio Pizzonia
Got no more support for Frank Montagny
I couldn’t get behind, Christian Albers,
I lost faith in Tiago Montero
Loyalty’s run out for Yuji Ide,
I got no more confidence in Ricardo Zonta,
Lost confidence Patrick Friesacher.
Ditched my devotion to Robert Doornbos,
No more motor racing heroes anymore.
