Lyrics

No place left to go? Got a feelin' you're dead? Better find a groove to ride Face down on the floor? But you ain't finished yet Gonna show you all the light This is the moment you've been waiting every day for We've got the spirit and we're never gonna let it fade There ain't no second place Runnin' down the fun tracks Everybody's givin' it up, livin' it up Catch us runnin' down the fun tracks We'll be out there bringin' this town to life, tonight Get you suited down in your finest of clothes If you wanna do it right No use holdin' back people, anything goes Gotta step on out and shine Get into training don't forget your sense of humor This is a race for all the crazy folks around today We need ya! We'll meet ya! Runnin' down the fun tracks Everybody's givin' it up, livin' it up Join us runnin' down the fun tracks Wanna see you tearing it up, today Pick up the challenge inside (you can make it happen) Fill all the world with your lovin' and affection Show all the others your smile and the race will be on (Let's run) Get into training, don't forget your sense of humor This is a race for all the crazy folks around today We're gonna set the pace Runnin' down the fun tracks Everybody's givin' it up, livin' it up Catch us runnin' down the fun tracks We'll be out there laughin' the night away You know we're runnin' down the fun tracks Everybody's givin' it up, livin' it up Join us runnin' down the fun tracks Wanna see you tearin' it up, today Runnin' down the fun tracks Runnin' down the fun tracks Everybody's givin' it up, livin' it up You can join us runnin' down the fun tracks Wanna see you tearin' it up, today
