I decided in my head at some point to take artistic license with Distance by Cake. The lyrics that I made up in my head went something like:

Legs pumping and thumping in time .
Churning and burning , they yearn for the cup.
He deftly maneuver and muscle for rank ,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank .
Reckless and wild , he pours through the turns ..
The course feels empty except for one man,
Still riding and riding as fast as he can.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
But he's riding and riding and hugging the turns ..
He's going the distance .
He's going for speed .
He's all alone
In a time of need .
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course ,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse ,
He's going the distance .
No trophy , no flowers , no flashbulbs , no wine ,
He's haunted by something he cannot define .
Assail him, impale him with monster -truck force ..
In his mind , he's still riding ,still making the grade ..
He's hoping in time that the pain will fade ..
Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course ,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse ..
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody else earned the cup.
But he's riding and riding and hugging the turns ..
He's going the distance .
He's going for speed .

etc, etc....
