Life in the Fast Lane

Lyrics

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 turnin' red."
 Life in the fast lane
 Surely make you lose your mind, mm
 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 heavenly 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, everything all the time
 Life in the fast lane, uh huh
 ♪
 Blowin' and burnin', 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 goddam thing."
 He said, "Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash."
 "The doctor say he's comin', but you gotta pay him cash."
 They went rushin' down that freeway,
 messed around and got lost
 They didn't care they were just dyin' to get off
 And it was life in the fast lane
 Life in the fast lane
