Rat Racer

I'm an impulsive scanner And that's a perfect waste of time Time ticks by And I walk miles To and from the line 'Another tea?' no I'll be fine Because I'm a rat racer Fortunes taster workin' from 9 to 5 Because I'm a rat racer Freedom's wasted on the ones I like I'm no ones tracer I'm Eatin' when I like I'm a coffee thief And an eyelash in your eye I'm holding out I'm waiting Holding out Because I'm a rat racer Fortunes taster workin' from 9 to 5 Because I'm a rat racer Freedom's wasted on the ones I like I've been living like a child Making things and complaining If there's one thing that comes with age It's the knowledge that time means something Even if you're doing nothing It's not what I had in mind And I know But ill try to give it time Make a list of things to buy Because I'm a rat racer Fortunes taster workin' from 9 to 5 Because I'm a rat racer Freedom's wasted on the ones I like Ones I like
