FASTER FASTER FASTER song lyrics/Words by Joel Sattler

music by Dave Richardson

Look out! Get the book out:
Check the odds and you will see that there is no doubt
If they think they're gonna catch me
They're living a dream.
So it seems. You know what I mean.

I work in the shadows supplying the jail,
They give me their business and hope that I'll fail.
Today they will etch my face onto a plate
So tomorrow I'm gone: out of the state.

Yesterday evening was peaceful and calm
Tomorrow I'll have to slide grease in the palm.
I've been running for years to avoid the Police.
Looking inside for a moment of peace.

Faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster
To stop a second surely would mean disaster

So now I am trying to figure the trap
My partner was loyal he's taking the rap
I could have been captured but I didn't think twice
I took to my heels, it was his sacrifice

My friends in the prison have forgotten my name
The pawns on the chessboard's forgotten the game
But I'm still the winner though I go it alone
In the morning I wake up and count all my bones

I broke every bottle and unchained the dogs
I smashed all the locks and escaped in the fog
But when I look in the diamond I see only flaws
Am I the only one left who is true to the cause?

The gamble's for granted but I'll find the key
But only the chase is important to me
Maybe next year I'll have broken the spell
And escaped from the Seventh Circle of Hell

Faster faster faster faster faster faster faster faster
To stop a second surely would mean disaster !
