Rat Race - Millenium

Rat race rat race from beginning

It’s no tme to sit and wait

Rat race rat race till the finish

They are hunters you’re the bait

Rat race rat race where’s it going

Every time I’m sick and tired

Rat race rat race nature’s calling

Clench your fist and start this evil fight

You can kill me once again

Before I hear the freedom call

Shoot an arrow in my heart

You’re just so close, so come inside

Well, I’m seeking heaven it’s my destination

It is not that far I know that it’s not far

Now I see your face it tells ne bout salvation

Is it real, or is it just a silent cry

You can save me once again

Before I start to scream and fall into the flames

But I feel it’s just a game

In the wire of dreams, empty faces full of grief

Well it’s been forever since I saw you coming

Standing self aured beneath the shade of pride

well, we’ve been together like the birth and dying

me and my ambition, neverending threat

A silent cry!

Welocome to the TV program «Rat race»

Today we have three families taking part in a competition

On my left a happy family from North America, it’s their 20th performance on Tv.

On my right a new family from Europe, they’re a bit stressed, it’s their first

time in the show.

Behind me there is a proud family from Asia, they’re for the

third time with us, will they win again?

Let me say it one more time — you are being watched by twenty million peaople —

give your best!

What are the prizes?

Third prize — a corkscrew.

Second prize — a fridge made in

China and First prize — one month holidays in Afganistan!

The rat race is about to begin… Ready, Steady, Go!!!

Why should I stay empty feelings grow

Why should I play the same of game of hope

Why, why should I sing the same old song

So deep inside my heart please don’t watch me disappear

This greay, empty sky is falling down

My faith, my illusions and my life

This flame is still burning in my soul

And it burns me out

I feel I’m nothing but a shade

I feel I’m nothing but the dust

I feel I’m fading slowly out

I can get enough

Rat race rat race where’s it going

Every time I’m sick and tired

Rat race rat race nature’s calling

Clench your fist and start this evil fight

Ladies and Gentlemen — the winner is… yes, yes

Mary and James — You are the best!!!
