The Lead Horse

The lead horse is burning up the track
With a monkey on her back in a baseball cap
She'll be in a ball of fire
When she streaks across that finish line
Lazy writers already wrote she's gonna win this race
Then split for cocktails
They won't be watching when
That second place horse, while she's looking back
And breaks her stride, takes advantage

Makes his move, la la lalala
Move, la la lalala

The lead horse has never lost
All their money's on her majestic head
She runs with confidence
And all that monkey had to do was
Hold on for dear life
From the starting gun to the finish line
Is that too much to ask?
Keep your hat on, and don't tug too tight
Or while she's looking back
She's gonna break her stride
And god forbid, she might

Lose, la la lalala
Lose, la la lalala

The lead horse is burning up the track
With a monkey on her back in a baseball cap
But she'll be disqualified
If she streaks across that finish line without her rider
No one understood that starting gun
It was supposed to be a bell
I guess that monkey bled until he passed out
There's no use looking back
Don't break your stride
Take advantage, make your

Move, la la lalala
Move, la la lalala
Move, la la lalala
