A one way ticket is all we need No return, no guarantee Straight ahead and don't look back This train is on a one way track Oh, oh, oh, Life is a precious thing Don't waste it all worrying Time that's lost Can't be returned It's another long hared lesson learned Teach your children not to hate Hope they learn before it's too late To get rid of the bad laws, and keep the good Save the oceans and the woods When will we all understand That the future's in our hands Once it's lost, it can't be returned It's another long hard lesson learned I can see the writing on the wall Open up your eyes and heed the call When you play with fire, you're bound to get burned Another long hard lesson learned (Repeat) (Repeat) (Repeat)
