Human Racing 428 Lyrics

Human Racing 428

closing in on empty spaces

winners laugh too soon

a paper world with paper faces

beneath a paper moon



there's a man, a real pacesetter

coming after me

and after him there's someone better and

after him there's me



he'll offer you a cigarette

he'll offer you a light

but he hasn't finished with you yet

on another long, knife night



so look behind you

there's the man you're chasing

look behind you

let's go human racing

human racing

let's go racing now



open arms and open purses

open season's here

fill your heads with clever verses

and then they disappear



silent vows in secret places

they'll get you somehow

cos you never win in human races

so who's the loser now



look behind you

there's the man you're casing

look behind you

let's go human racing

human racing

let's go racing now
