Текст песни The Fastest Man In The World - The Lost Connection

The fastest man in the world
Didn't want to race
He knew he was the fastest
And that knowledge he embraced

People tried to force him
Into competition
Her didn't feel the need
So he stuck to his decision

He felt good inside
And the fact that no-one knew
Wasn't really an issue
Nothing he needed to do
There was no reason to prove
The speed at which he ran
He was comfortably employed
A fit and healthy man

The fastest man in the world
Didn't want to race
He knew he was the fastest
And that knowledge he embraced

People tried to force him
Into competition
Her didn't feel the need
So he stuck to his decision

He knew he was the fastest
He lived a pleasant life
He had no need for fame
He didn't need the strife
He wanted no attention
Enjoyed his privacy
No need for recognition
Unknown he could be

He had a caring woman
He was a caring man
To be anything more
Was never his plan
People despised him
Said it was a waste
To have such a talent
That never ever raced

The fastest man in the world
Didn't want to race
He knew he was the fastest
And that knowledge he embraced

People tried to force him
Into competition
Her didn't feel the need
So he stuck to his decision.

Two trains of thought
Neither's right or wrong
Contention is self-pleasing
But temptation can be strong
Proving you're the best
Is unnecessary
It's the knowing that counts
But some may say
To the contrary

Happiness is cool
But fame can be scary
The fastest man in the world
Lived a happy life
And remained happily living
With his children and a wife
Happiness is paramount
Fame ruins people's lives

The fastest man in the world
Didn't want to race
He knew he was the fastest
And that knowledge he embraced
The fastest man in the world
Didn't want to race
He knew he was the fastest
And that knowledge he embraced

People tried to force him
Into competition
He didn't feel the need
So he stuck to his decision.

The fastest man
The fastest man
The fastest man
The fastest man in the world
