Lyrics:
Cased in steel and strapped in heat,
Hurtling down an endless street,
Heading for where the white lines meet…
Torque from the engine screams from the wheel
Rubber on tarmac steel biting steel
Straddle your charger saddle your steed
When chasing the future speed's what you need
CHORUS:
And there's no time, time to think
No time to wonder
No time to stop and stare
Keep moving or you will go under
Don't think of why and don't think of how
And don't think of where think only of now
As greedy for speed you race down the track
With eyes straight ahead there's no looking back
Fast acting fast food high speed fast living
Time waits for no man time's unforgiving
Faster and faster 'round the wheel spins
A race that is racing, tell me who wins
Time can't be wasted, speed is the key
Look back on the journey what did you see
For time is the villain time is no friend
From pit stop to pit stop - the race never ends.
