Her lips were cracked and sore
They call her "Amphetamine Annie
Lord, she wouldn't hear what I said
She didn't know it was going down fast
Who come from across the pond
She said "I don't care what a limey says
She's always shovelling snow"
I've got to get it on"
Speed can kill you too baby
Well I sat her down and told her
"I don't mind you getting high
On those little pills
She heard things at the door
But Annie kept on speeding
I just couldn't take it no more
Her health was getting poor
But you ought to know it's dying
'Cause speed kills
I'm not here to just see no other man
[Incomprehensible]
She thought her mind was flying
About this chick I know
I told her one more time
And she's awfully dead
I told her crystal clear
On those little pills
Far too much methedrine
She wouldn't heed my warning
She saw things in the window
I sat her down and told her
But there's one thing you should fear"
I wanna tell you all a story
Her mind was like a grinding mill
Your mind might think its flying, baby
Her skin was turning yellow
Now she's in the graveyard
'Cause speed kills
The whole wide human race has taken
