[Intro] Engine growls, headlights glare, Black cab creepin’, he’s already there. Dark roads call, yellow sign glows, One-way ride, but where it goes—no one knows.(no one KNOWS) [Hook]Look out! [Verse 1] Wheels roll smooth on the M62, Rain hits the glass, leaves no clue— Silent killer, foot down fast, Another lost soul in the rear-view past. (gone, gone, gone) [Pre-Chorus] Where ya headin’? Nowhere near home— Seatbelt clicks, ya ain't alone. (never alone) One last ride, one last breath, Johnny Jacker—drivin’ you to death. (the ride of your life) [Chorus] Motorway reaper, speedin’ through the night! Fate’s in the mirror, drowned in taillight! Windows fogged up, silence so tight— He ain't takin’ fares, he’s takin’ your life! (takin' your life!) Motorway reap-ERRR, Motorway reap-ERRR, Motorway reaper, speedin’ through the night! Fate’s in the mirror, drowned in taillight! Windows fogged up, silence so tight— He ain't takin’ fares, he’s takin’ your life! (takin' your life, taking your life!) [Verse 2] M1’s empty, fog creeps low, Tires screamin’, demons in tow. Fare in the back, startin’ to pray, (god help me) But the meter’s tickin’ their soul away. (tick, tick, tick) [Bridge] "Driver, slow down—mate, where are we?" No reply, just the hum of the M3. No exits, no turn-offs, no way out, Next thing ya know—lights go out (LIGHTS. GO. OUTTTTTTT) [Verse 3] Backseat’s empty, gone in the mist, Blood on the dashboard, knife in his fist. Screech at the junction, radio hums, Another poor soul—gone, just crumbs. (just crumbssssssss) [Hook]Motorway reap-ERRR!! Motorway reap-ERRR!! [Verse 4] Headlights vanish, ghost on the lane, Police tape flappin’ in the cold UK rain. They’ll never catch him, never see, Johnny Jacker—forever freeeeeeeeeeee. (NO, YOU WON'T CATCH MEEEEEE!) Motorway reaper, speedin’ through the night! Fate’s in the mirror, drowned in taillight! Windows fogged up, silence so tight— He ain't takin’ fares, he’s takin’ your life! (takin' your life!) Motorway reap-ERRR, Motorway reap-ERRR, Motorway reaper, speedin’ through the night! Fate’s in the mirror, drowned in taillight! Windows fogged up, silence so tight— He ain't takin’ fares, he’s takin’ your life! (takin' your life, taking your life!) TAKING. YOUR. LIFE!!!!!
