lyrics

Life in the fast lane

Verse 1.
No doubt you’ve always been good for me
Giving sense to my thoughts bringing sanity
If I felt frustrated and want to give it all up
It’s you who makes me stop and take a step back.
Coz when you’re standing so close to the edge
Nothing’s more important than that next step
Yeah when you’re standing so close to the edge
Nothing’s more important than that next step

Verse 2.
The rewards are there for all to see
There’s money on tap and the comfort it brings
Fast cars, smart clothes and property
But what is the real price of these
With all these trappings of wealth
There’s a hidden cost to your health
Yeah with all of these trappings of wealth
There’s a hidden cost to your health

Chorus
Coz this is life out in the fast lane
The pressure’s on there’s so much to gain
There are no prizes for second place
When you’re running in the rat race
Failure’s not an option there’s no plan B
But I need you to watch my back for me
Yeah, failure’s not an option there’s no plan B
But I need you to watch my back for me

Verse 3.
There is many a man waiting to fill my shoes
Wishing to have all that I can lose
There are also some who think they are better than me
But you know the truth and what I can achieve
You are only as good as your latest result
And it truly is so very tough at the top
Yeah you’re only as good as your latest result
And it truly is so tough at the top.

Chorus.

Coz this is life out in the fast lane
The pressure’s on there’s so much to gain
There are no prizes for second place
When you’re running in the rat race
Coz this is life out in the fast lane
The pressure’s on there’s so much to gain
There are no prizes for second place
When you’re running in the rat race
Failure’s not an option there’s no plan B
But I need you to watch my back for me
Yeah, failure’s not an option there’s no plan B
But I need you to watch my back for me
