Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
Nothing ahead I haven't seen before. I can tell.
Dry eyes and feeling well.
Had my chin up once before it didn't end well.
Bite the bullet, break a leg.
Gotta get my shit in order, gotta keep my head
Cutting corners gets out of hand.
Until you find yourself in a foreign trance,
in a foreign land.
A penny saved is a penny earned.
So let's get to spending, the time is winding.
Time flies when you're having fun.
Well not today because it seems to me that I'm the only one.
But your guess is as good as mine.
Let's not spend ourselves or even our time.
Off the hook, hit the sack.
Go get my skins gotta roll one fast.
Then I'll take you home back to nowhere.
We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
Every cloud I've found lets me down.
And every line you cross just goes round and round.
Slow and steady wins the race.
Save up for a rainy day and keep the ace.
Live and learn, and learn as I live.
Tried for far too long got no more left to give.
But come rain or shine I hope you're mine.
Burnt that bridge in front of all divines.
Go down in flames get up again.
But I can't give up now.
Gotta let those sleeping dogs lie down.
Then I'll take you home back to nowhere.
We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
Every cloud I've found lets me down.
And every line you cross just goes round and round.
I've made it here way above the clouds.
The silver lines they never shine like you talked about.
I want down, let me down.
I've made it here way above the clouds.
They're not as light and not as fluffy as you talked about.
I want down, let me down.
Then I'll take you home back to nowhere.
We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
Every cloud I've found lets me down.
And every line you cross just goes round and round.
