lyrics

VERSE
Heard there's a cure
And rest assure, we'll find it
Not a pill, but something that subsided
When luck runs out
And if we both give up having our doubts
We'll both dip set and party again
Like we did last night, who cares that was then
We'll bottle happiness
With drinking games and shots of bliss
There's nothing Friday night can't fix
But could someone please turn up the party mix

PRE CHORUS
That we can't live with out
It's a phase we sometimes doubt
But here we go again
Let's go all out

CHORUS
We all want the fast lane
Live it up we're forever young and insane
We'll keep our eyes from seeing
The side effects from this life we're leading
We all want the fast lane
Will Karma get us back one day?
Which friends will leave?
Which friends will stay?
I'm counting on
We'll always crave
The fast lane

VERSE 2
We found the cure
It will lure us closer
Put down your cigarette
And I can tell you a lot more
Flash
Exposed
I took a photograph
With her eyes still close
Incoherent
It's so apparent
That she won't remember striking this pose

PRE CHORUS 2
Just slow down everything
Life is not a race, so we can stop running

CHORUS
We all want the fast lane
Live it up we're forever young and insane
We'll keep our eyes from seeing
The side effects from this life we're leading
We all want the fast lane
Will Karma get us back one day?
Which friends will leave?
Which friends will stay?
I'm counting on
We'll always crave
The fast lane

BRIDGE
The fast lane...
He is addicted
She reminisces
It's so easy, to give in
Don't give in, don't give in, don't give in

CHORUS
We all want the fast lane
Live it up we're forever young and insane
We'll keep our eyes from seeing
The side effects from this life we're leading
We all want the fast lane
Will Karma get us back one day?
Which friends will leave?
Which friends will stay?
I'm counting on
We'll always crave
The fast lane
