El Rei aconselha:

"I’ve been around and I’ve seen some things
People moving faster than the speed of sound,
Faster than a speeding bullet,
People living like Superman,
All day and all night
And I won’t say it is wrong
Or if it is right
I’m pretty fast myself
But I do have some advice to pass along

Better not look down
If you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down
Keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back
Or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
If you don’t look down

An old friend of mine showed up the other day
That girl lived in love, and for love, and over love, and under love all her life
If the arrows of Cupid’s bow that had passed through her heart had been sticking out of her body she would have looked like a porcupine – and she asked me
“B.B. Do you think I’ve lived my life all wrong?”
and I said “The only advice I have to pass along is concealed in the chorus of this song girl”

Better not look down
If you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down
Keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back
Or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
If you don’t look down

I was walking down the street at sunrise one morning
In London, England – and there was a very large Rolls Royce
Limousine pulling slowly along the street and in that
Rolls Royce was the Queen of England looking tired -
Just back from a party – and the Queen leaned out and she said – “Aren´t you B.B. King?” She said “Oh B.B. sometimes it´s so hard to pull things together.
Could you tell me what you think I ought to do?”
And I said

Better not look down
If you want to keep on flying
Put the hammer down
Keep it full speed ahead
Better not look back
Or you might just wind up crying
You can keep it moving
If you don’t look down"

(Joe Sample, Will Jennings em B.B. King’s “Take it home” 1979)
