Running on Ice(Remastered) - Billy Joel

作曲：Billy Joel

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 the 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 ice

Running on ice

Running on ice

Running on ice

Running on ice

Running on ice
