Crash and Burn Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
L.A. to Reno
Checking out the scene-o
Feeling so mean-o
Sometimes I wish I could crash and burnWinding through the hot night
Without my headlights
Twenty twenty hindsight
Sometimes I wish I could crash and burnCrash and burn
And I never ever felt so lonely
Crash and burn
Can't look them in the eye

Just want to drive and drive and driveGoing nowhere
And I don't care
Can't wait 'til I get there
Sometimes I wish I could crash and burnFifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety
Gotta be a place where they can't find me
Watching all those bridges burn behind meAnd if I can't see
What's passing me
Nothing's gonna touch me and I'll fly
I wish I could crash and burnCrash and burn
And I never ever felt so lonely
Crash and burn
Can't look them in the eye
Just want to drive and drive and driveOn my Philco I hear an echo
There was a wreck-o yesterday
And by tomorrow
They'll sweep the char-o
And wash the tar and trouble awayI wish I would
I wish I would
I wish I could

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Bangles were one of the new generation of independent all-women bands that followed The Go-Go's in the early 1980s. Consisting of Susanna Hoffs (guitar, vocals), Debbi Peterson (drums, vocals), sister Vicki Peterson (guitar, vocals,) and Annette Zilinskas, who was later replaced by Michael Steele, (bass, vocals). The band was formed in Los Angeles in 1981 as The Supersonic Bangs, later shortened to The Bangs. They were forced to change their name to the Bangles when a band from New Jersey, also named the Bangs, threatened to sue. The single 'Manic Monday', written by Prince launched their international career. After 3 successful albums ("All Over The Place", "Different Light" and "Everything"), The Bangles broke up.
Susanna Hoffs released two solo albums in the 90's (a third album remained unreleased). Vicki Peterson joined the Continental Drifters. Debbie Peterson had a short-lived career with Siobhan Maher as Kindred Spirit, while Michael Steele lived in semi-retirement in California.

The Bangles reconvened in 2000 and recorded a reunion album, released in 2003, on Koch Records called "Doll Revolution". By lucky coincidence(?) their single 'Eternal Flame' had since been covered by, and become a hit record for, Atomic Kitten which helped to rekindle interest in its original artist.

"Sweetheart of the Sun," The Bangles first album of original material since "Doll Revolution" was released September 27, 2011. The Anna Lee (Sweetheart Of The Sun) Songfacts states that the album was recorded in various home studios - those of Vicki Peterson and Susanna Hoffs as well as the Hollywood Hills home studio of singer-songwriter Matthew Sweet, who produced the record.
