lyrics

GOIN NOWHERE FAST
THE SUN SETS IN A WESTERN SKY, ANOTHER DAY GOES BY
SOMETIMES IT SEEMS LIKE I AM GOIN NOWHERE FAST
NO USE TO COMPLAIN, FOOD FOR THOUGHT IN THE DRIVE THRU LANE
THE CAR IN FRONT WANTS A BURGER PLAIN, WE’RE GOIN NOWHERE FAST

THE WORLD TURNS AND AROUND WE GO, 25K IN A DAY OR SO
IT FEELS LIKE WE’RE STANDIN STILL, IT ALWAYS HAS, MAYBE ALWAYS WILL

THE WIND DIES, THE SAILS STALL, SLOWS THE BOAT DOWN TO A CRAWL
OUT OF RANGE FOR A CELL PHONE CALL, WE’RE GOIN NOWHERE FAST
WE’RE IN A COSMIC NASCAR RACE, THE DAYTONA TRACK IN OUTER SPACE
WITH NO CONCERN FOR THE DESTINATION OR THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION

THE SUN SHINES, THE WIND BLOWS, THE TIDES RISE THE GULF STREAM FLOWS
WHERE WE’RE HEADED NO ONE KNOWS, BUT WE’RE GOIN NOWHERE FAST
SOMETIMES I THINK IT’S FINE, GOIN NOWHERE FAST
SOMETIMES I THINK IT’S FINE, GOIN NOWHERE FAST

GOIN NOWHERE, FLAT WITH NO SPARE, GOT NO BUS FARE, REALLY DON’T CARE…..
