Red Barchetta - Rush[00:00:00]
My uncle has a country place[00:00:46]
That no one knows about[00:00:49]
He says it used to be a farm[00:00:52]
Before the motor law[00:00:55]
And on sundays I elude the eyes[00:00:59]
And hop the turbine freight[00:01:02]
To far outside the wire[00:01:05]
Where my white-haired uncle waits [00:01:08]
Jump to the ground[00:01:32]
As the turbo slows to cross the borderline[00:01:33]
Run like the wind [00:01:39]
As excitement shivers up and down my spine[00:01:40]
Down in his barn[00:01:45]
My uncle preserved for me[00:01:47]
An old machine[00:01:49]
For fifty-odd years[00:01:50]
To keep it as new has been his dearest dream[00:01:52]
I strip away the old debris[00:02:00]
That hides a shining car[00:02:03]
A brilliant red barchetta[00:02:06]
From a better vanished time[00:02:09]
I fire up the willing engine[00:02:13]
Responding with a roar[00:02:16]
Tires spitting gravel[00:02:20]
I commit my weekly crime [00:02:22]
Wind in my hair[00:02:43]
Shifting and drifting[00:02:46]
Mechanical music[00:02:52]
Adrenalin surge[00:02:57]
Well-weathered leather[00:03:07]
Hot metal and oil[00:03:09]
The scented country air[00:03:10]
Sunlight on chrome[00:03:13]
The blur of the landscape[00:03:15]
Every nerve aware[00:03:16]
Suddenly ahead of me[00:03:55]
Across the mountainside[00:03:58]
A gleaming alloy air-car shoots towards me[00:04:01]
Two lanes wide[00:04:06]
I spin around with shrieking tires[00:04:07]
To run the deadly race[00:04:11]
Go screaming through the valley[00:04:14]
As another joins the chase[00:04:17]
Drive like the wind[00:04:41]
Straining the limits of machine and man[00:04:43]
Laughing out loud[00:04:48]
With fear and hope I've got a desperate plan[00:04:49]
At the one-lane bridge[00:04:54]
I leave the giants stranded[00:04:56]
At the riverside[00:04:57]
Race back to the farm[00:05:01]
To dream with my uncle[00:05:02]
At the fireside[00:05:04]
