[Verse 1] I'll never bother keeping up with you Burning the candle at both ends, it's true You know the writing's on the wall Why do you ride to take a fall [Chorus] Slow down, you're moving way too fast Slow down, you know you'll never last Slow down, your haste is making waste Slow down, and join the human race, yeah [Verse 2] I tried to tell you time and time again You know you'll have to pay the consequence
Now you're obsessed with such a pace But slow and steady wins the race [Chorus] [Verse 3] You seem to run around and around in vain People are saying that you've gone insane Tell me just what you're running from One day you're here, the next you're gone [Chorus] Slow down, you're moving way too fast Slow down, you know you'll never last Slow down, your haste is making waste Slow down, and join the human race
