Life In The Fast Lane

He was a hard-headed man, he was brutally handsome

And she was terminally pretty

She held him up, and he held her for ransom

In the heart of the cold, cold 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 turning red"

Life in the fast lane, surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane

Aha

Are you with me so far?

Eager for action and hot for the game

The coming attraction, the drop of a name

They knew all the right people, they took all the right pills

They threw outrageous parties, they paid heavily bills

There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face

She pretended 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

Life in the fast lane, surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane

Aha

Life in the fast lane, everything all the time

Life in the fast lane, oh

Blowing and burning, blinded by thirst

They didn't see the stop sign, took a turn for the worse

She said, "Listen, baby, you can hear the engine ring

We've been up and down this highway, haven't seen a goddamn thing"

He said, "Call the doctor, I think I'm gonna crash"

The doctor say "He's coming, but you gotta pay in cash"

They went rushing down that freeway, messed around and got lost

They didn't care, they were just dying to get off

And it was

Life in the fast lane, surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane, hay

Life in the fast lane, everything all the time

Life in the fast lane, hey

Life in the fast lane, all the time

Life in the fast lane, everything all the time

Life in the fast lane, surely make you

Surely make you, make you lose your mind
