Life in the Fast Lane
Intro
Verse 1
He was a
hard headed m
an, he was
brutally hand
some,
and she was terminall
y pretty.
She held him up, and
he held her for ra
nsom
in the heart
of the cold, col
d city.
He had a
nasty reputation as a cruel dude,
they
said he was ruthless, they said he was crude,
they had
one thing in common, they were good in bed.
She'd say,
"Faster, faster, the lights are turnin' red!"
Chorus
Life in the fast
lane, surely m
ake you lose your mind.
Life in the fast
lane, mm.
Verse 2
Ea
ger for actio
n and hot for the
game,
the com
ing attraction
, the drop of a name
.
They knew
all the right peop
le, they took
all the right pi
lls,
they threw
outrageous par
ties, they paid
heavenly bi
lls.
There were
lines on the mirror, lines on her face,
she pre
tended not to notice, she was caught up in the race.
Out every evening until it was light,
he was
too tired to make it, she was too tired to fight about it.
Chorus
Life in the fast
lane, surely m
ake you lose your mind.
Life in the fast
lane, mm.
Life in the fast
lane, everyth
ing all the time
.
Life in the fast
lane, uh huh.
Verse 3
Blowin' and bur
nin',
blinded by thi
rst,
they
didn't see the s
top sign, took a t
urn for the wo
rst.
She said,
"Listen, bab
y, you can
hear the engine r
ing,
We've been
up and down this high
way,
haven't s
een a goddamn t
hing."
He said,
"Call the doctor, I think I'm gonna crash.”
The
doctor says he's coming, but you gotta pay him cash."
They went
rushin' down that freeway, messed around and got lost,
they didn't care they were just dying to get off.
(Chorus)
Life in the fast lane.
Life in the fast lane.
