Why you keep looking right behind you
Keep throwing your head back and forth?
How 'bout eyes straight ahead?
’Cause ain't nothing back there anymore

Don't act like you’ve forgotten something
Like you done left behind a friend
The only friend you need
Is the one who don't care where you've been

Now you got a case of

Whiplash
Why you keeping track of your past?
You are free at last
And when you're free, there ain't no need
For whiplash, whiplash, whiplash

They say you cannot take it with you
Say your goodbyes and walk away
The more you turn around
The more you're coming down with

Whiplash
Why you keeping track of your past?
You are free at last
And when you're free, there ain't no need
For whiplash
Why you keeping track of your past?
You are free at last
And when you’re free, there ain’t no need

Why not let your past stay in the past (woah, woah)
'Cause you are free, oh, you are free at last (woah, woah)
Wave goodbye now, turn around and dance

Whiplash
Why you keeping track of your past?
You are free at last
And when you’re free, there ain't no need
For whiplash
Why you keeping track of your past?
You are free at last
And when you're free, there ain't no need
I said when you’re free, there ain't no need
I said when you're free, there ain't no need
For whiplash, whiplash, whiplash
