you can figure out the rest

The cars hiss by my window
Like the waves down on the beach
The cars hiss by my window
Like the waves down on the beach
I got this girl beside me
But she's out of reach

Headlights thru my window
Shining on the wall
Headlights thru my window
Shining on the wall
Can't hear my baby
Tho' I call and call

Window started tremblin'
With those sonic booms
Window started to tremble
With those sonic boom, boom
A cold girl'll kill you
In a darkened room
