Song lyrics

Last time I was sober, man, I felt bad
Worst hangover that I ever had,
It took six hamburgers and scotch all night,
Nicotine for breakfast just to put me right.
Cos if you wanna run cool,
If you wanna run cool
If you wanna run cool,
You got to run on heavy, heavy fuel,
Heavy, heavy fuel,
Heavy, heavy fuel

My life makes perfect sense,
Lust and food and violence,
Sex and money are my major kicks,
Get me in a fight , I like dirty tricks
Cos if you wanna run cool,
If you wanna run cool
If you wanna run cool,
You got to run on heavy, heavy fuel,
Heavy, heavy fuel,
Heavy, heavy fuel

My chick loves a man who's strong,
The things she'll do to turn me on,
I love the babes, don't get me wrong
Hey, that's why I wrote this song

I don't care if my liver is hanging by a thread,
Don't care if my doctor says I ought to be dead,
When my ugly big car won't climb this hill
I'll write a suicide note on a hundred dollar bill,
Cos if you wanna run cool,
If you wanna run cool
If you wanna run cool,
You got to run on heavy, heavy fuel,
Heavy, heavy fuel,
Heavy, heavy fuel
