[Verse 1]
Before you turned the engine on
I noticed there was something wrong
With both your eyes, I hit it anyway
No way in hell I'll let you drive
I told you we should stay alive
You sit and smile, I don’t care what you say

[Chorus]
'Cause before I get old
I wanna die young and beautiful and broke

[Verse 2]
You fall asleep behind the wheel
Like it ain't even no big deal
You killed me, babe
One day, you’ll kill us both
The wild side nobody sees
The devil inside of you and me
If we let it out, it'll be all she wrote

[Chorus]
'Cause people in this town
Won't think that burning it down is a joke
Before we get too old
I wanna die young and beautiful and broke

[Bridge]
Oh an old routine, this kamikaze dream
Is more fun than it seems

[Chorus]
'Cause people in this town
Won't think that burning it down is a joke
But they won't see us laughing
As we drive directly straight into the smoke
Before we get too old
I wanna die young and beautiful and broke
