Lyrics
Living and dying, laughing and crying Once you have seen it you’ll never be the same Life in the fast lane is just how it seems Hard and it’s heavy and dirty and mean Motorbreath It’s how I live my life I can’t take it any other way Motorbreath The sign of living fast It is going to take your breath away Don’t stop for nothing, it’s full speed or nothing I’m taking down, you know, whatever’s in my way Getting your kicks as you’re shooting the line Sending the shivers up and down my spine Motorbreath It’s how I live my life I can’t take it any other way Motorbreath The sign of living fast It is going to take your breath away Those people who tell you not to take chances They are all missing on what life’s about You only live once so take hold of the chance Don’t end up like others, same song and dance Motorbreath It’s how I live my life I can’t take it any other way Motorbreath The sign of living fast It is going to take your breath away© 1983 Creeping Death Music (Global Music Rights)
