Jack hues[00:00:01]
A man lives in the city[00:00:09]
Surrounded by machines[00:00:44]
They take away his pity[00:00:47]
And give him what he dreams[00:00:50]
A stream of information[00:00:53]
On a green letter screen[00:00:56]
Makes him feel in touch with the world[00:00:59]
And sure of what it means[00:01:01]
At the speed of light you're in endless night[00:01:04]
At the speed of sound you don't see the ground[00:01:09]
And in your sports car with the windows down[00:01:13]
And the radio on and you don't stop talking[00:01:16]
Thanks I'll keep walking[00:01:19]
I'm doing things in my own way[00:01:25]
Well I'm doing things as I please[00:01:31]
And then everything else goes its own way[00:01:36]
At the speed of life[00:01:42]
A man lives in the city[00:01:48]
Distracted by the news[00:02:01]
From sitting down with the ones he loves[00:02:04]
Or taking time to choose[00:02:06]
And what of conversation[00:02:10]
And what is left when he dies[00:02:13]
Is there a diary of an honest man[00:02:15]
To stand against the lies[00:02:18]
Repeat chorus[00:02:27]
I'm doing things for their own sake[00:02:35]
A picture on a screen won't do[00:03:26]
I need to feel and touch it too[00:03:29]
Do what I feel[00:03:31]
I'm doing things for their own sake[00:03:35]
I gotta find that essential deep emotion[00:03:37]
Get unhooked from this low commotion[00:03:40]
And do what I feel[00:03:43]
I'm doing things in my own way[00:03:45]
I'm doing things in my own way[00:04:33]
Well I'm doing things as I please[00:04:39]
And then everything else goes its own way[00:04:45]
At the speed of life[00:04:49]
This is the speed of life[00:04:56]
