Violent Femmes Fast Horses song lyrics

There's something that I, I can't say

something that guys don't like to hear anyway

it's not that I don't love you

and it's not that I can't cry, ‘cause I wanna cry I love you when I think

that everything and everyone I love will die

Fast Horses

racing around the track

although the course is slow

win, place, or show

everything in life must go

there's something John Lennon never wrote

tell me what you hear when you listen closely to the notes

he never sang a beautiful song, not like Frank or what's his name, Elton John,

some crazy Christian killed him, the poor bloke

but he was running with some fast...

Fast Horses

racing around the track

although the course is slow

win, place, or show

everything in life must go

stand, stand, stand up for me

‘cause I will stand, I will stand up up up up up for you

there's something I think I lost and I might need to recover

there's nothing that stand-up guys won't do for each other

they tore down the bar, and I totaled the car

you can have a drink to futility

you're not as bad as you think and you are beautiful to me

and you can be like fast

Fast Horses

racing, ripping, running down the track

of course, the course is slow

win, place, or show

even the loser should know

that he was a fast, fast horse

and he was racing, wrecking, and raggin' round the track

of course, the course is slow

win, place, or show

everything in life must go

everything in life must go

everything in life must go

everything in life must go

everything in life must go

Fast Horses

Fast Horses
