Lyrics Red Barchetta

My uncle has a country place that no-one knows about
He says it used to be a farm before the Motor Law
And now on Sundays
I elude the Eyes and hop the Turbine Freight
To far outside the Wire where my white-haired uncle waits
Jump to the ground as the Turbo slows to cross the borderline
Run like the wind as excitement shivers up and down my spine
Down in his barn my uncle preserved for me an old machine for fifty-odd years
To keep it as new has been his dearest dream
I strip away the old debris that hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta from a better, vanished time
We fire up the willing engine responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime
Wind in my hair
Shifting and drifting
Mechanical music
Adrenalin surge
Well-weathered leather
Hot metal and oil
The scented country air
Sunlight on chrome
The blur of the landscape
Every nerve aware
Suddenly ahead of me across the mountainside
A gleaming alloy air-car shoots towards me, two lanes wide
I spin around with shrieking tires to run the deadly race
Go screaming through the valley as another joins the chase
Drive like the wind straining the limits of machine and man
Laughing out loud with fear and hope
I've got a desperate plan
At the one-lane bridge
I leave the giants stranded at the riverside
Race back to the farm to dream with my uncle at the fireside
