The field was bright with clover
|
I saw the finish sign
|
I started as a rover
|
And then victory was mine
|
I thought the race was over
|
But they just keep moving the line
|
|
They cheered at my persistence
|
But prayed for my decline
|
The path of least resistance
|
Led to Hollywood and Vine
|
I tried to go the distance
|
But they just keep moving the line
|
|
I jumped all of the hurdles
|
To break out of the pack
|
I started on the outside
|
And then hit the inside track
|
|
I left the other fillies
|
Back at the starting gate
|
Was ready, on my mark, I got to set
|
To hurry up and wait
|
|
So talent and ambition
|
Won me a chance to shine
|
I aced the big audition
|
But it's rainin' on Cloud Nine
|
Can't beat the competition
|
'Cause they just keep moving the line
|
|
I handled every corner
|
Each bump along the track
|
And when I saw the ribbon, well
|
There was no turning back
|
|
I won the photo finish
|
I posed for all the men
|
But before I got my trophy
|
Well, the race began again
|
|
So I made friends with rejection
|
I've straightened up my spine!
|
I'll change each imperfection
|
Till it's time to drink the wine!
|
I'd toast to resurrection
|
But they just keep moving the line!
|
|
Please give me some direction,
|
'Cause they just keep moving the line!
