closing in on empty spaces
winners laugh too soon
a paper world with paper faces
beneath a paper moon
there`s a man, a real pacesetter
coming after me
and after him there`s someone better and
after him there`s me
he`ll offer you a cigarette
he`ll offer you a light
but he hasn`t finished with you yet
on another long, knife night
so 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
open arms and open purses
open season`s here
fill your heads with clever verses
and then they disappear
silent vows in secret places
they`ll get you somehow
cos you never win in human races
so who`s the loser now
look behind you
there`s the man you`re casing
look behind you
let`s go human racing
human racing
let`s go racing now
