Mc Spandex - Performance lyrics
rate meI know you don't understand... <br />
How could I spend 5 grand on a bike?<br />
You think that's absurd, <br />
Well there's only 1 answer, <br />
And there's only 1 word, <br />
It's Performance! <br />
I don't think you understand, <br />
Riding with fitness is more than track stands<br />
I got a word of advice for all you hipsters<br />
Go and get yourself some brakes and some shifters<br />
I drop 2 g's on my Dura-ace<br />
Cat one race and now I'm setting the pace<br />
My brakes are tuned-up<br />
I can stop on the dime<br />
When I'm in the pack I'm always holding my line<br />
My bike is so light and dialed in just right<br />
I got my seat raised to just the right height<br />
So I can pedal with efficiency<br />
Don't mess with my cadence<br />
I pedal to the beat<br />
How you think I made this?<br />
<br />
It's all about performance.<br />
That's the name of the game.<br />
I pump up my tires and I oil my chain.<br />
Performance<br />
That's the name of the game.<br />
And I always ride through the pain.<br />
<br />
All these hipsters think their so tricky<br />
With their messenger bags<br />
On their back on their fixies<br />
Pedaling quickly down the hills<br />
Don't blow out your knees and take a spill<br />
An anodized chain?<br />
Cards in your spokes?<br />
How can you ride?<br />
Your pants are a joke.<br />
You can barely get your hands on your handlebars.<br />
Looking kinda shaky when you're weaving through cars<br />
You think it makes you look like a courier<br />
It really just makes you look girly<br />
Is that a steel frame from 1988?<br />
You might as well use it as an ankle weight<br />
<br />
It's all about performance.<br />
That's the name of the game.<br />
I pump up my tires and I oil my chain.<br />
Performance<br />
That's the name of the game.<br />
Carbon fork<br />
Carbon stem<br />
And aluminum frame<br />
Ugh, God I gotta get a carbon frame<br />
<br />
24/7 I'm in nothing but spandex<br />
Cutting through the wind cause I'm aerodynamic<br />
And when I slam it<br />
It makes you look inert<br />
Now I'm eating up hills<br />
Like my name is Eddie Merckx<br />
With my endurance<br />
You don't stand a chance<br />
My cardiovascular fitness level's right up there with Lance<br />
Doing what I can<br />
To shave off the seconds<br />
I shave my legs<br />
My girl she doesn't get it<br />
I embrocate my skin<br />
But I'm never doping<br />
Electrolyte smoothies ever morning for my focus<br />
I smoke my opponents anytime, anywhere<br />
You try to hang with me<br />
I'll have you pedaling squares<br />
<br />
It's all about performance.<br />
That's the name of the game.<br />
I pump up my tires and I oil my chain.<br />
Performance<br />
That's the name of the game<br />
And I never feel the pain<br />
<br />
It's all about performance.<br />
That's the name of the game.<br />
I pump up my tires and I oil my chain.<br />
Performance<br />
That's the name of the game<br />
And I always ride through the pain
