Did I just hear an alarm start ringing?
Did I see sirens go flying past?
Though I don't know what tomorrow's bringing
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast
I'm gliding smooth as a figure skater
I'm riding hot as a rocket blast
I just expected it ten years later
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast
And you say, "Oh, no, step on the brakes
Do whatever it takes but stop this train!
Slow, slow! The light's turning red!"
But I say, No! No!
Whatever I do I barrel on through
And I don't complain
No matter what I try, I'm flyin' full speed ahead!
I'm never worried to walk the wire
I won't do anything just half-assed
But with the stakes getting somewhat higher
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast
I found a woman I love
And I found an agent who loves me
Things might get bumpy, but
Some people analyze ev'ry detail
Some people stall when they can't see the trail
Some people freeze out of fear that they'll fail
But I keep rollin' on
Some people can't get success with their art
Some people never feel love in their heart
Some people can't tell the two things apart
But I keep rollin' on
Oh, oh, maybe I can't follow through
But oh, oh, what else am I s'pposed to do?
I dreamed of writing like the high and mighty
Now I'm the subject of a bidding war!
I met my personal Aphrodite
I'm doing things I never dreamed of before!
We start to take the next step together
Found an apartment on Seventy-Third!
The Atlantic Monthly's printing my first chapter
Two thousand bucks without rewriting one word!
I left Columbia and I don't regret it
I wrote a book and Oprah Winfrey read it!
My heart's been stolen!
My ego's swollen!
I just keep rollin' along!
And I say, "Well, well, what else is in store?
Got all this and more before twenty-four!"
It's hard not to be sure I'm spinning out of control!
Out of control!
I'm feeling panicked and rushed and hurried!
I'm feeling outmaneuvered and outclassed
But I'm so happy that I can't get worried
About this singular impression
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast!
Did I see sirens go flying past?
Though I don't know what tomorrow's bringing
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast
I'm gliding smooth as a figure skater
I'm riding hot as a rocket blast
I just expected it ten years later
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast
And you say, "Oh, no, step on the brakes
Do whatever it takes but stop this train!
Slow, slow! The light's turning red!"
But I say, No! No!
Whatever I do I barrel on through
And I don't complain
No matter what I try, I'm flyin' full speed ahead!
I'm never worried to walk the wire
I won't do anything just half-assed
But with the stakes getting somewhat higher
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast
I found a woman I love
And I found an agent who loves me
Things might get bumpy, but
Some people analyze ev'ry detail
Some people stall when they can't see the trail
Some people freeze out of fear that they'll fail
But I keep rollin' on

Some people never feel love in their heart

Out of control!

I'm feeling outmaneuvered and outclassed
But I'm so happy that I can't get worried
About this singular impression
I've got a singular impression things are moving too fast!
