I recall a time, my friend When nothing seemed to have an end And time was only something to forget The gra** was so much greener and The sun always shone warmer then No rain will ever once again fall so wet And everything was given to us We only paid for the down town bus And i lend myself a buck one time So i could thank my self for being kind Oh oooo
Now the world appears to shrink At least inside our heads, i think We're running but we're never getting no where We learn to love our own disguise But not to stop when the soul cries We're too busy running so we don't care We all want to go to heaven I hope i make it there by 7 pm And when we get to paradise We can toast with jesus christ Oh oooo
