Cracking the Whip

Well, you've always been too slow
And you’ve always been too late
You should have known too long ago
Your life's at stake

'Cause you never could keep up
And you never read the signs
Now you’re turning dust to dust
Running out of time

Cracking the whip
It's a new kind of pain
Cracking the whip
Don't try in vain

You were always in despair
Seems like you were born to lose
Now you're dying, no one cares
A cannon on the loose

Look's like you missed the boat
And you didn't catch the train
Now you're crying, trying, in vain
Can't take the pain

Cracking the whip
It’s a new kind of pain
Cracking the whip
Don’t try in vain
Cracking the whip
It's a new kind of pain
Cracking the whip
Don’t try in vain

Cracking the whip
Cracking the whip

Cracking the whip
It's a new kind of pain
Cracking the whip
Don't try in vain
