Bang

Bang!

Dig! Dig!

Keep your head low

Throw the arms

Pump. Pump.

 

Woof! wo-woof!Over here!

 

Breath.

In my nose, out my mouth

Accelerate. Slow rise.

Pump. Pump.

Next gear. Go!

Drive the knees. Forward lean.

There he is! Get him! WOOF!

Keep the stride.

Don't stop.

They can't catch what they can't see.

Ghostin um'.

Lean into this corner.

Drive off it.

Drive! Drive!

Knees high!

Pump your arms!

Go! Go!

He over there! I see him!

More power.

Don't close your stride.

They can't catch you today.

Champion. Don't stop.

Run til you got no more breath!

Run til you got nothing left!

This Is the last stretch.

The finish is near.

Hit your last gear.

Lean across the line,

With steeze.

STOP THIS IS THE POLICE!
