The Lyrics
Jackknifed, at red light
I was-n't so bright
Anphet'mines caused my plight
Swaying my mind, they betrayed and maligned 'bil-i-ty, occ-ularly...
Jackknifed my B-Double of loam
At full speed, like Grand Prix
I drove a tad hasty
You should see the debris
Smoke now if rife; call for big jaws of life to pry me,
Fraaaag-mentary
Jackknifed, and I done wrecked my chrome
(lots of heavy metal hitting more heavy metal)
Jackknife, in strife
How to tell the wife?
I'd best be contrite
"Babe, may you find your dismay intertwined with some glee
I was cut free"?
Jackknifed, firemen sprayed me with foam
I was-n't so bright
Anphet'mines caused my plight
Swaying my mind, they betrayed and maligned 'bil-i-ty, occ-ularly...
Jackknifed my B-Double of loam
At full speed, like Grand Prix
I drove a tad hasty
You should see the debris
Smoke now if rife; call for big jaws of life to pry me,
Fraaaag-mentary
Jackknifed, and I done wrecked my chrome
(lots of heavy metal hitting more heavy metal)
Jackknife, in strife
How to tell the wife?
I'd best be contrite
"Babe, may you find your dismay intertwined with some glee
I was cut free"?
Jackknifed, firemen sprayed me with foam
