Written by Rick Springfield

I feel devotion in the wicked dark

I see the ocean around the shark

I know the pope, famed and sanctified

Inside the hurricane, I can see the eye

My last words won't be a sneak attack

Cause I know, death drives a Cadillac

I hear the hymns in battleground gunfire

I see dreams like the funeral prye

I taste wine in a poison cup

Prayed at the shrine then I blew it up

Even the best saw his kingdom crack

Cause he knew, death drives a Cadillac

We're the only ones who hear the engine running

Daughters and sons, yeah, we know it's coming

When you die they recall a better you

It ain't all a lie, but it ain't all true

Headlights in your mirror, baby don't look back

It's getting nearer, death drives a Cadillac
