The time's upon you
Take your number, find your place
You are here to race
Look all around you
Everybody's on the run
Can you keep the pace
You can't fight it
It's just like this
It goes on and on, it goes on
It goes forward never slows down
On and on the world is racing
It's so crazy
We are living to run
Getting faster as it goes round
Now's a ghost town
It goes on and
This is your one chance
Do your best with what you have
Though it seems unkind
Others are waiting
Determined to replace you
Should you fall behind
But you could wake up
Realize you have a choice
Leave this dream for good
It's far too late now
Even if you'd like to go
Running's all you know
Try to fight it
It's just like this
It goes on and on, it goes on
It goes forward never slows down
On and on the world is racing
It's so crazy
We are living to run
Getting faster as it goes round
Now's a ghost town
It goes on and
In spite of hard times
We can find strength to go on
