lyrics

Low compression is the way to go you gotta
Save your money and fit a turbo
You got to shop around, and get a good deal
Before you can make your tyres really squeal

If you want to be up front, not feel like a fool
You've got to fit a turbo to be really cool
What ever happened to the good old days when a
Cam and extractors was the only way

Natural aspiration was the way it used to be
Now it's just all force feed

Force feed, force feed
Now it's just all force feed
Force feed, force feed
Now it's just all force feed

You've got to pipe your engine up just right
Before you can get your petrol to ignite
You've got to tune your motor all night
Before you can launch it into flight

If you can't get a turbo and be really cool
You've got to take yourself back to school
Automatic gearbox with overdrive
Never been slow all his life!

Natural aspiration was the way it used to be
Now it's just all force feed

Force feed, force feed
Now it's just all force feed
Force feed, force feed
Now it's just all force feed

Turbo Girl, you're a Turbo Girl
You really send me round this great big world
Turbo Girl, you're a Turbo Girl
You really send me round this great big world
