They call it the burnout factor, and only the good die young

Somebody's gonna take their life, just tryin' to have some fun

The paper's gonna say we're crazy, no matter what they say, yeah

You know i'm gonna rock all night, gonna rock all night and day



Whenever they quote you man, you'll be misunderstood

They're never gonna get it right, or tell it the way they should

Maybe we move too fast to put it all in a song

And if we keep pushin' ourselves we won't be around too long

If you wanna try it



Crash and burn, crash and burn

Crash and burn, crash and burn all night long



Some people like to take it easy and flow without a sound

Others like to play for keeps and spread themselves around

I don't wanna say it's right, but if that's where you wanna be

Life's too short to miss out on what you wanna see

If you wanna try it



Crash and burn, crash and burn

Crash and burn, crash and burn all night long



Come on now, honey, don't tell me the way i ought to be

You know i don't need nobody talkin' back to me

Hey, i'm gonna live my life the way i think i should

You know i wouldn't change a thing, even if i could

I tell it like it is



Crash and burn, crash and burn

Crash and burn, crash and burn

Baby, crash and burn

I said crash and burn

I said crash and burn
