Lyrics Think Fast - DEVO

Think Fast

If an Amtrak train was closing in fast
And five pretty girls trapped on the track
And you could pull a switch to save their lives
But if you did, you'd kill ten young guys
What would you do?
What would you do?

(Think fast) Show the world who you are
(Think fast) Your chance to be a star
(Think fast) Show the world who you are
(Think fast) So close, but no cigar

If a child chased a ball into the street
And was sure to get splattered by an SUV
Unless you shoved him out of the way
But if you did, it'd your final day
What would you do?

(Think fast) Show the world who you are
(Think fast) Your chance to be a star
(Think fast) Show the world who you are
(Think fast) So close, but no cigar

Well I'm not telling you what to do
I'm telling you what you're doing
It's not how you play the game
It's what kind of game you're playing

If a psycho killer with a loaded gun
Stuck it in your face and said "Don't run!"
If you do he turns and he kills your brother
Freeze instead and the psycho kills your mother
What would you do?
What would you do?

(Think fast) Show the world who you are
(Think fast) Your chance to be a star
(Think fast) Show the world who you are
(Think Fast) So close but no cigar
