## Background

In an interview conducted by Billboard, when Charli was asked how **Vroom Vroom** came about, she responded with:

> "Well, I was taking this, sort of, music production class at my school, and our assignment for that day was to create a song and bring it to class the next week. So I hooked up with my friends A. G. and SOPHIE, and we all came up with a song about, well, fast cars and riding them. It was SUCH a fun experience. A. G. and I uploaded the song to SoundCloud so our teacher could easily access it. Our only purpose was for our teacher to be able to have easy access to our song. But suddenly, it blew up overnight and became an overnight sensation. It literally blew up like wildfire around the internet, it was so crazy oh my god."

## Lyrics

**[Intro]**

Let's ride

Let's ride

Let's ride

Let's ride

**[Verse 1]**

Lavender Lamborghini, roll up in a blue bikini

Bitches on the beaches, lookin' super cute and freaky

All my friends are princesses, we keep it whipped and creamy

Ice cubes on our tongues, because we like to keep it freezy

Lavender Lamborghini, get out on the right side

Chauffeur stayed at home, because my girl wanted to ride

Lookin' luxe and tastin' plush, I'm feelin' so alive

Want to take it to the highway, come on, let's go for a drive, uh

**[Pre-Chorus]**

All my life, I've been waitin' for a good time, a good time

(Let me ride, let me ride)

All my life, I've been waitin' for a good time, a good time

So let me ride, let me ride

(Let me ride, let me ride)

All my life, I've been waitin' for a good time

So let's ride

**[Chorus]**

(Vroom vroom) Bitches know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Cute, sexy and my ride sporty

(Vroom vroom) Those slugs know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Beep beep, so let's ride

(Vroom vroom) Bitches know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Cute, sexy and my ride sporty

(Vroom vroom) Those slugs know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Beep beep, so let's ride

**[Post-Chorus]**

Let's ride

Let's ride

Let's ride

Let's ride

**[Verse 2]**

Bubblegum-pink Ferrari, yeah, I'm so bossy

Speedin' like Alonso just to crash your party

People are goin' loco when I'm pullin' up, takin' your papi

Don't think about consequences, 'cause they're never gonna stop me, what?

**[Pre-Chorus]**

All my life, I've been waitin' for a good time, a good time

(Let me ride, let me ride)

All my life, I've been waitin' for a good time, a good time

So let me ride, let me ride

(Let me ride, let me ride)

All my life, I've been waitin' for a good time

So let's ride

**[Chorus]**

(Vroom vroom) Bitches know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Cute, sexy and my ride sporty

(Vroom vroom) Those slugs know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Beep beep, so let's ride

(Vroom vroom) Bitches know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Cute, sexy and my ride sporty

(Vroom vroom) Those slugs know they can't catch me

(Vroom vroom) Beep beep, so let's ride

**[Outro]**

Boom, boom, boom

Hear me comin' through the radio

Watch me go zoom, zoom, zoom

Try to catch me, but you're too slow

Boom, boom, boom

Hear me comin' through the radio (Know they can't catch me)

Watch me go zoom, zoom, zoom (Know they can't catch me)

Try to catch me, but you're too slow

Too slow, too slow
