Rat Race Songtext
von Streets

Trapped upon the freeway
The kitchen in the air
Static on the radio
Confusion everywhere
Panic in the subway
A hustle in the street
Trying to meet a deadline
Impossible to meet

Do you want to join the rat race?
Would you like to be in first place?
If you say you′ll do your best, friend
If you win again
Then you're ready for the rat race
I can see it written on your face
Welcome to the rat race


Corporation yes man
And no one knows your name
The first to take the credit
But you′re last to take the blame
Office like a battlefield
On the 42nd floor
Pencils turn to switch blades
Executives at war

Do you want to join the rat race?
Would you like to be in first place?
If you say you'll do your best, friend
If you win again
Then you're ready for the rat race
I can see it written on your face
Welcome to the rat race

Can you handle the pressure?
Are you pushing ahead?
Do you think you′re a leader?
Do you know where you′re led?

Do you want to join the rat race?
Would you like to be in first place?
If you say you'll do your best, friend
If you win again
Then you′re ready for the rat race
I can see it written on your face
Welcome to the rat race


Welcome to the rat race
Welcome to the rat race
Welcome to the rat race
