Thats How You End Up by Lorne Elliott Lyrics
Some SOB in an SUV
Passed me in my LTD
While I was on the TCH one day
I stepped upon the gas but he
thought he would do ASAP
and leave me in the dust with SFA
While this behavour POed me
So strainin’ every CC
I thought I’d overtake him PDQ
He looked at me, thought A-OK:
You wanna race? I’ll have to lay,
Some rubber; can you smell it burn? P.U.
[Chorus]
That’s how you end up DOA
That’s how you end up RIP
In the ICU in the ER
with no a-mount of CPR
will resuscitate you
You’re DEAD
Our KPH is mounting high
our tires at maximum PSI
Our pistons blastin’ loud as TNT
Our ACs pumpin’ BTUs
We’re straining our engines but not our IQs
When that SOB he honked at me
So revvin’ up my RPM
I honked NYOB at him
and looked ahead and saw a GMC
Swervin’ like he was DWI
Comin’ right at me so I
Went off the road and made like an ATV
[Chorus]
That’s how you end up DOA
That’s how you end up RIP
In the ICU in the ER
With no a-mount of CPR
Will resuscitate you
You’re DEAD
My one intention in my head
Was to survive not end up dead
A three car pileup I ain’t waiting for (four)
All five of my senses are tellin’ me
Deep six is paying immediately
Or seven rhymes with heaven which I’d anticipate (anticip-eight)
There’s more
All nine lives in a scale from one to ten
I’d used up. But just then…
I swerved back on the road in time to see
The car I’d thought was DWI
Had turned, and was starting to chase us, why?
Four letters on his hood: RCMP
[Chorus]
That’s how you end up DOA
That’s how you end up RIP
In the ICU in the ER
With no a-mount of CPR
Will resuscitate you
You’re DED
Spells “dead”
No it don’t
Who cares?
You won’t
You’re a goner…
