[Hook]
Da da-dow da-dow da-da-da (x4)

[Verse 1: Joe Carnall and Jon McClure]
I invented penicillin
While I found a plaster
I've got fifty caps
I've just got the one

But it's not a race if no-one's winning
It's just I move faster
And now the hare and the tortoise
Roll into town

[Chorus: Jon McClure]
There's no need to worry
You don't have to hurry
We're two different trains

Who arrive at a station
The same destination
In different ways

[Hook] (x2)

[Verse 2: Joe Carnall and Jon McClure]
For me, the girls are always willing
I'm a romantic disaster
I take the things that are brown and I make them green
I won't be blue
But it's not a race that's worth winning
I've been meaning to ask you
Are you the hare or the tortoise?
As we roll into town

[Chorus] (x2)

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Hook]
