Sat at a desk opening an email
Anti-virus check its all so secure
Life on the screen hoping that it wont fail
Check your bank account just to be sureThey charge for desk space
Here in the rat race
They charge for desk spaceSat on the platform waiting in the pouring rain
Look at the people they all look the same
Sat in your car stuck on the motorway
Look at your life its in the slow lane
You got to wait in place
Here in the rat race
You got to wait in placeKeep on runnin round that wheel
Keep on runnin round that wheel
Keep on runnin round that wheel
Keep on runnin
Runnin round that wheelSat in the pub something for the weekend
Need to let off steam dying for the ride
Girls in short skirts givin it the big’un
It the same thing every friday night
Go back to her place
Escape the rat race
You got to save face
Here in the rat race
You got to save face
Here in the rat race
You got to save face
Here in the rat race
La-di-da
