Closing in on empty spaces
Winners laugh too soon
Their paper world with paper faces
Beneath a paper moon
There's a man
A real pace setter
Coming after me
And after him there's someone better
And after him there's me
Oh well he'll offer you a cigaret
He'll offer you a light
But he hasn't finished with you yet
On another long knife night
So look behind you
There's the man you're chasing
Look behind you
Let's go human racing human racing
Let's go racing now
Open arms and open purses
Open season's here
Well they fill your head with clever verses
And then they disappear
Silent vowes in secret places
They'll get you somehow
Cause you never win them human races
So who's the loser now
Look behind you
There's the man you're chasing
Look behind you
Let's go human racing human racing
Let's go racing now
Na na na na na na
Human racing
After me after him
Now na na now
Who's the loser
