Rat Race lyrics

Wake me from my sleep

A cautionary tale

A walk in infancy

A way to derail

I wanted to be free

And I wanted only you

The walls are falling down

And somebody says

Give a little love, give a little love

But take your time

And somebody sighs

Yes, give a little love, give a little love

But take your time

A private life, c'mon now

I said livin' gets to be

Just like a rat race, rat race

C'mon, I'm a-read between the lines

Fierce stuggle, a natural one

A Tough job gets to be

Just like a rat race, rat race

C'mon, I'm locked up in myself

Check before rising

Check before we work

Childproof the scene

No screams can be heard

The roof is caving in

The space between our hearts

The walls are falling down

And somebody says

Give a little love, give a little love

But take your time

And somebody sighs

Yes, give a little love, give a little love

But take your time

A private life, c'mon now

I said livin' gets to be

Just like a rat race, rat race

C'mon, I'm a-read between the lines

Fierce stuggle, a natural one

A Tough job gets to be

Just like a rat race, rat race

C'mon, I'm locked up in myself

It's a rat, it's a rat, it's a rat race

It's a rat, it's a rat race

[x2]

Aah life, living in a rat race, c'mon

Hmm life, are you living in a rat race?

C'mon, here inside yourself

I'm locked up in myself
