Time flies into yesterday And all those things now are so far away But some things never seem to change I'm still the same old kid I don't get paid I don't get laid And I don't really care They told me they had a cure But it's been seven years and I'm still waiting For every saint and every jerk Everyone has their things We're maniacs Hypochondriacs And that's just fine with me 'Cos though our clocks are ticking Right now we're here and kicking If I head for that cliff will you still catch me? Each time they turn it up But I just tear it down My thoughts alkaline and I run on gasoline It's so unfair but that is life That may be so but I don't have to like it We've always got what's in our minds Each laugh and happy day From every rush Each stupid crush They never go away 'Cos though our clocks are ticking Right now we're here and kicking If I head for that cliff will you still catch me? Each time they turn it up But I just tear it down My thoughts alkaline and I run on gasoline 'Cos though our clocks are ticking Right now we're here and kicking If I head for that cliff will you still catch me? Each time they turn it up But I just tear it down I'm still the same old kid I don't get paid I don't get laid And I don't really care!
