There's no time to phone home
When you're racin', you're on time
You contemplate, you gotta wait your own turn
Up the noise with some poison, with great poise
You can't compare it too, or let it scare you through
If everything you do is not as smoothly as we planned
You gotta understand:
There is more for you
But all you gotta do, ooh
Is put yourself with the people
They're the ones who make the world spin
Lust in favor, you can win
And you'll take home the gold medallion
And ride the wobbly wave of fame
That is why you came
That is why you
Came to your senses
To feel it out
And try to kill off every dial
Your mother worries, but no one worries quite like you
And when you start you must rely on your own heart
Cause nothing works the same or takes the blame or wins the game
With your head in your hands in the pouring rain
I wanna see you as you are
Like a lonely star
There is more for you
But all you gotta do, ooh
Is put yourself with the people
They're the ones who make the world spin
Lust in favor, you can win
And you'll take home the gold medallion
And ride the wobbly wave of fame
That is why you came
That is why you came
You gotta be so strong
You gotta teach your son
How to stand up straight
When you wanna run
How to carry on
How to be yourself
To be different.. but the same
That is why you came
