Human Racing

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Closing in on empty spaces Winners laugh too soon A paper world with paper faces Beneath a paper moon Well, there's a man, a real pace setter Coming after me And after him there's someone better And after him there's me Oh well, he'll offer you a cigarette He'll offer you a light Oh, but he hasn't finished with you yet On another long knife night [Chorus] So look behind you There's the man you're chasing Look behind you Let's go human racing Human racing Oh, let's go racing now [Verse 2] Open arms and open purses Open season's here Well, they fill your head With clever verses And then they disappear Silent vows in secret places They'll get you somehow Oh, 'cause you never win in the human races So who's the loser now? [Chorus] 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 [Outro] Oh Around and around, we go Human racing now, oh After me, after him Round and round, we go Who's the loser now? Let's go racing now
