Everybodys in a hurry Caught up in keeping up with things that dont matter at all Searching for shortcuts To speed things up as if life is not fast enough What happened to the front porch Pa**ing the day with the wave to all the cars as they pa** Time stops for no one Weve all got one thing in common and its that were not growing young Lets unplug the clocks Not let another minute pa** Help me find a way to stop this life from moving so fast Wont you come and slow the world down Slow the world down Slow the world down with me Dont think about tomorrow I make a toast to just enjoy the taste of today Cause lifes such a short song Weve all got to dance to the beat of the second hand slowly counting down Lets unplug the clocks Not let another minute pa** Help me find a way to stop this life from moving so fast Wont you come and slow the world down Slow the world down Slow the world down with me Ill take the quiet of the country or the sand of the beach A place where telephone lines dont reach Far from the city lights that steal the stars from the night sky And the high rise shadows that block out the sun light Where the sandcastles sink cause the tides always low Theres always time and it always runs slow Slow the world down Slow the world down Slow the world down With me
