How wrong can you be? Fortune hits the wall And the whole 500 fall How wrong can you be? How wrong can you be? I didn't see it at the time as a conflict of interests A pretty girl at the wheel of a German car It isn't hard to surrender to market forces Take your seat Become the pa**enger Nobody said We're getting away with murder No looking in the rear view mirror Foot to the floor She didn't say I'm working for the competition A pretty girl at the wheel of a German car When you went away I thought that I was free...
