I want to be quick, move at light speed, never grow up, never come down

I want to be small, walk with small feet, treading the space just above ground

Quick as I can, quick as a cat, quicker than sand, quicker than that

I want to be young, want to be beautiful, making a small beautiful sound

(Chorus)

Albert Einstein was never good at math

But he found time down a curving path

The faster you go, the slower you grow

The less that you have to fall

The faster you go, the slower you grow

Until you weigh nothing at all

Nothing at all

Nothing at all

I want to have girth, I want to have mass, it's the new weight-loss plan

I want to run free, want to run fast, go on and catch me if you can

Quick as a shark, quick as a blink, quick as a thought, quicker than you think

I want to be scarce, out of sight, I am light's biggest fan

Chorus

Richard Petty

Ain't got nothing on me!

I want to be quick, move at light speed, never grow up, never come down

I want to be small, walk with small feet, treading the space just above ground

Quick as I can, quick as a cat, quicker than sand, quicker than that

I want to be young, want to be beautiful, making a small beautiful sound

Chorus
