about
An uptempo, driving rocker where Chuck Berry meets Devo meets the future of rock and roll. A song about desperation at the end of a relationship, sung by an unreliable narrator who is speeding down the highway on the way to fix it. A guitar solo that somehow sounds like Wilko Johnson and Eddie Van Halen, but made of pure chaos. Every part of the song is a hook, from the opening guitar riff to the verse to the chorus.
lyrics
I gotta get back, feeling sick
And dead in the gutter
And I've been dead tired messing up
My mind to think what I would do
Just to be with you
On the eve of our demise
Just to be with you
On the back of the borderline
We gotta get outta here
We gotta get outta here
You know I'm looking for my people here
We gotta get outta here
New Jersey turnpike
Cutting through the night like a rudder
Black as the night is the river flowing under
The bridge that leads to you
Just to be with you
On the eve of our demise
Just to be with you
In the back of the borderline
Pull up to your place looking for
A light in the shutters
The blue and red lights
Howling round the corner
Distract you from the truth
Just to be with you
On the eve of our demise
Just to be with you
In the back of the borderline
We gotta get outta here
We gotta get outta here
You know I'm looking for my people here
We gotta get outta here
