There·s a lot of tension in this town
I know it·s building up inside of me
I·ve got all the symptoms and the side effects
Of city life anxiety

I could never understand why the urban attitude
Is so superior
In a world of high rise ambition
Most people·s motives are ulterior

Sometimes I feel as though I·m running on ice
Paying the price too long
Kind of get the feeling that I·m running on ice
Where did my life go wrong

I·m a cosmopolitan sophisticate
Of culture and intelligence
The culmination of technology
And civilized experience

But I·m carrying the weight of all the useless junk
A modern man accumulates
I·m a statistic in a system
That a civil servant dominates

And all that means is that I·m running on ice
Caught in a vise so strong
I·m slipping and sliding, cause I·m running on ice
Where did my life go wrong

You·ve got to run
You·ve got to run

As fast as I can climb
A new disaster every time I turn around
As soon as I get one fire put out
There·s another building burning down

They say this highway·s going my way
But I don·t know where it·s taking me
It·s a bad waste, a sad case, a rat race
It·s breaking me

I get no traction cause I·m running on ice
It·s taking me twice as long
I get a bad reaction cause I·m running on ice
Where did my life go wrong

You·ve got to run
You·ve got to run
Running on ice
Running on ice
Running on ïce
