Monster Of Speed

from Strange Songs for Strange Times by THUNDERCLAP

/

about

An absurd song about a man addicted to his own mania.
A little folky, a lot weird.

lyrics

Oh don't be slow, slow, slow
I'm not trying to be mean when I say
Oh, wipe that drool away
You must gain speed, speed, speed
There ain't no time to eat or to pee
When you've got people to meet and places to be

Oh, there's only so much time to fight off boredom
So, let’s be honest
We must do what we do well
It will be swell

I'm a monster of speed
Looking down on the trees
Ruling the highways and byways as I please
You may think that I'm mean

My fists fall down
On the harvest of humanity
Like cold, uncaring locusts
Of an unearthly justice

Yes, life can be fine
When you don't follow the rules
And you follow the fools
Hey, sometimes don't be afraid to lose
Yes, all in good time, for good measure
You'll see, it will be fine
