Take the fast lane, baby, you travel so light
The fast lane, mother, your bark is your bite
Fast lane, baby, it's all such a gas
Fast lane, honey, you wave as you pass

I got a packet, I keep it for my mind
I'm so impressive so handsome and so kind
There's people wanting to talk to me all day
There's people hanging on every word I say
Get busy one time

I dial 9 I need an outside line
To another world that leaves me feeling fine
I dial 9 I need an outside line
To another world that leaves me feeling fine

Take the fast lane, baby, you travel so light
The fast lane, mother, your bark is your bite
Fast lane, baby, it's all such a gas
Fast lane, honey, you wave as you pass

I talk a lot, everything I say is wise
I chop 'n' change the picture turns to black 'n' white
I try so hard to promise you the world and more
It's my career c'mon it's time I had some more
