Life in the Fast Lane - Live; 1999 Remaster

He was a hard-headed man he was brutally handsome

And she was terminally pretty

She held him up and he held for ransom

In the heart of the cold, cold city

He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude

They said he was ruthless 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

Eager for action and hot for the game

The comming 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 evenin' 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

Life in the fast lane everything all the time

Life in the fast lane

Blowin' and burnin' blinded by thirst

They didn't see the stop sign; took a turn for the worst

She said, "listen, baby. you can hear the engine ring.

"We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen a god-damn 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 were rushing 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

Surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane

Life in the fast lane everything all the time

Life in the fast lane
