Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Wanna keep me cool
And face your cleverness
And your powerful engine
I see the crowd exulting for me tonight
Over and over
[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanna be the leader
Ready to win you forever
At full speed, step on the gas tonight
It's alright!
[Chorus - Repeat Twice]
I got the fire of the Grand Prix
Grippin' my steering, wheel so tight
Gonna be a lucky Grand Prix
Ready to cross the line on the end
[Verse 2]
I just wanna be the champion
Tonight a race it's gonna be started
Get ready now! A roaring success for me
I really like it!
