Emma's come down
She's stopped the light
Shining out of her eyes
Emma's been run out on
She's breaking down
In so many places
Stuck in low gear
Because of her fears
Of the skidding wheels
The skid of her wheels she feels
Skidding wheels
The skid of her wheels she feels
Skidding wheels
Wheel-skidding feeling
Her heart is there
But they've greased the road
Her heart is out there
But she's no control
Chorus: come on, you've got to use your flow
You know what it's like, and you know you want to go
Don't drive too slowly
Don't put your blues where your shoes should be
Don't push your foot on the heartbrake
She's losing that inner flame
It was burning bright
But she's losing the light fast
She's only herself to blame
Well, take care of yourself
And remember Georgie
But she's so O.D.'d on weeping
She can hardly see
That she's dropping beads
Red, red glass is bleeding
Dropping beads
Red, red glass is bleeding
Dropping beads
Red, red on the parquet
Her heart is there
But they've greased the road
Her heart is out there
But she's no control
Chorus 2x: come on, you've got to use your flow
You know what it's like, and you know you want to go
Don't drive too slowly
Don't put your blues where your shoes should be
Don't push your foot on the heartbrake
