[Verse 1]
Doc had a midnight secret underneath the mall
A silver flash, a sudden roar, and history would fall
Marty grabbed the wheel and watched the dashboard start to shine
One wrong turn through yesterday could tangle every line
[Pre-Chorus]
His mother knew his name before he ever said hello
His father found a backbone where the old fear used to grow
A photograph was fading, but the future held on tight
One bolt from the courthouse tower split the dark with white
[Chorus]
Great Scott! We’re racing through the years
Great Scott! With lightning in our gears
From a dusty western town to tomorrow’s open door
Every second dares us to become a little more
Great Scott! Hold on and don’t look back
The road keeps bending on the track
If the clock says go, then go
And let the past make room to grow
[Verse 2]
A black DeLorean waited where the clock hands met the sky
The stainless doors swung open and the night went rushing by
A bully chased a dreamer, but the dreamer learned to steer
A friend became a hero when he finally faced his fear
[Pre-Chorus]
The old town changed its colors, the family found its voice
A future isn’t destiny; it’s built from every choice
The engine screamed at eighty-eight, the world became a flame
You can visit any year, but you can’t outrun your name
[Chorus]
Great Scott! We’re racing through the years
Great Scott! With lightning in our gears
From a dusty western town to tomorrow’s open door
Every second dares us to become a little more
Great Scott! Hold on and don’t look back
The road keeps bending on the track
If the clock says go, then go
And let the past make room to grow
[Bridge]
Yesterday is fragile glass
Tomorrow isn’t set
The choices that we make right now
Are all we’re given yet
So raise the wheels, ignite the night
Let thunder clear the way
The best adventure isn’t where you’re from
It’s what you choose today
[Final Chorus]
Great Scott! We’re racing through the years
Great Scott! With lightning in our gears
From a dusty western town to tomorrow’s open door
Every second dares us to become a little more
Great Scott! Hold on and don’t look back
The road keeps bending on the track
If the clock says go, then go
And let the past make room to grow
[Outro]
Great Scott!
The future’s waiting at the line
Great Scott!
Make every moment count this time
