Things were very quiet back there You really ought to try it back there But when you think you've had enough It's come the time to pack your stuff and go I know I know I'm going upfront Out in front Leaving everyone behind Got to see what I can find Upfront Upfront, out in front I was always meant to be There for all the world to see Upfront Nothing but beginners back there They never heard of winners back there They laughed at all my crazy schemes They told me to forget my dreams and stay No way The way to go is upfront Out in front Leaving everyone behind Got to see what I can find Upfront Upfront, out in front I was always meant to be There for all the world to see When the living is high And the loving is free and easy Every star in the sky is shining for me Upfront, out in front Leaving everyone behind Got to see what I can find upfront Upfront, out in front I was always meant to be There for all the world to see
