You say you’ve got a position
And it’s paying you well
But it means that your day is spent travelling on the road to hell
If you want my opinion
You should get out now
I say life is too short to be worshipping a holy cow
Life in the fast lane is getting you down I know
And all that paraphernalia
That you just don’t need
You bought all that dumb stuff to satisfy your inner greed
Life in the fast lane is taking you far away
She’s got a sweet disposition
You should be treating her well
You say that you love her but she finds it hard to tell
You should be looking to downsize
Take her out of the town
Take your eye off the ball for once and take a look around
Life in the fast lane has taken you far away
