Lyrics for Hes Going The Distance by Cake:
| | | Artist: | Cake |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Hes Going The Distance | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 275 | | | | Lyrics: | Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
Engines pumping and thumping in time.
The green
light flashes, the flags go up.
Churning and burning they yearn for the cup.
They deftly
manuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
Reckless and wild they pour
through the turns.
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern.
As they speed through the
finish the flags go down.
The fans get up and they get out of town.
The arena is empty
except for one man,
Still driving and striving as fast as he can.
The sun has gone down and
the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's driving and
striving and hugging the turns,
And thinking of someone for whom he still
burns.
(chorus)
He's going the distance,
He's going for speed.
She's all alone
(all alone) all alone in her time of need.
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the
course.
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
He's going the distance. (aaaaawww
aaawww)
No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no line-
He's haunted by something he can
not define.
Bowel shaking earthquakes, of doubt and remorse.
Assail him impale him with
monster truck force.
In his mind he's still driving; still making the grade.
She's hoping in
time that her memory will fade.
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the
course.
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
The sun has gone down and the moon
has come up.
And long ago somebody left with the cip
But he's striving and driving and
hugging the turns,
And thinking of someone for whom he still
burns.
(chorus)
