Speed Kills Songtext
von Gil Scott‐Heron

Speed on by
Don′t seem to have the time
What about this life?
What about this life?
Can I call mine?

Issues in the paper
Somehow I'm not concerned
Seems that I′ve been here before
Here before, but I never learn


Children
Slowly turn

Time stay gone
We never saw it go
Now what do we have?
Now what do we have
That we may show?


Friends you swore you'd never lose
Melted from your style
Down the tunnels of your youth, of your youth
Now you never smile
Children
Learn to smile
