Stepping on the gas
Watching as cars pass.
You see the light is green.
Going faster now
Playing your music loud
You see the light is yellow.
Stepping, stepping, stepping on the brakes
Sweat begins rolling down your face.
You see the light is red.
Finally stopping just in time
Congratulations, you just avoided committing a crime.
