Once I had a good friend, very dear to me
He said, "I can handle it, it doesn't worry me"
Cocaine and the needle, I know when to say no
Let me tell you: my good friend, ain't here no more
Living in the fast lane, never go slow
Living in the fast lane, anything goes
Way back in the sixties, I remember well
Mind blowing parties, gate to living hell
First it gives you sweet dreams, makes your mind fly free
But that g******' habit is killing by degree
Living in the fast lane, never go slow
Living in the fast lane, anything goes
Builds walls around you, bars up the door
Makes a strong man heplless, cry out for more
Makes you beg for mercy, on your knees and pray
Time bomb on your brain, ticking night and day
Living in the fast lane, never go slow
Living in the fast lane, anything goes
He said, "I can handle it, it doesn't worry me"
Cocaine and the needle, I know when to say no
Let me tell you: my good friend, ain't here no more
Living in the fast lane, never go slow
Living in the fast lane, anything goes
Way back in the sixties, I remember well
Mind blowing parties, gate to living hell
First it gives you sweet dreams, makes your mind fly free
But that g******' habit is killing by degree
Living in the fast lane, never go slow
Living in the fast lane, anything goes
Builds walls around you, bars up the door
Makes a strong man heplless, cry out for more
Makes you beg for mercy, on your knees and pray
Time bomb on your brain, ticking night and day
Living in the fast lane, never go slow
Living in the fast lane, anything goes
