Racing in the Street Lyrics

Magic Rat definitely got the point (I bet, with thatnickname!:))

"Now some guys they just give up living and start dying little by little, piece by piece Some guys come home from work and wash up And go racing in the street"

I think the meaning lies in these lines: you try to live your life following just your own soul (but it often ends bed, such as in Something in the night).

I saw Bruce live in Milan on 06/25, and during a 9 minutes version of RITS I had tears in my eyes.
