SANTERS Racing Time "Taken from the same-titled LP of the band (1982)"

One of the best melodic hard rock songs of all time with NWOBHM touches.

LYRICS
Ten o'clock and I'm still in bed
Got this achin' in my head
Can't withstand this daily drive
But I've got to survive

Tires spinning tempers flare
Feel the tension in the air
Destination I don't care
Neverending dispair

Racing time, got to meet the deadline
Racing time, gonna leave them behind

Now my life is outta control
Have to live by sample and hold
Want to tell but never be told
What I've bought and sold

Day is drawing to an end
Rather live than just pretend
Once my foe but now my friend
No fort to defend

Racing time, got to meet the deadline
Racing time, gonna leave them behind

Ten o'clock and I'm still in bed
Got this achin' in my head
Can't withstand this daily drive
But I've got to survive

Racing time, got to meet the deadline
Racing time, gonna leave them behind
