A million young poets
|
Screamin' out their words
|
To a world full of people
|
Just livin' to be heard
|
Future generations
|
Ridin' on the highways that we built
|
I hope they have a better understanding
|
|
Check it out

Goin' to work on Monday

So check it out
|
Where does our time go
|

|
Check it out
|
Sometimes I question my own behavior
|
Check it out
|
Talkin' about the girls that we've seen on the sly
|
Just to tell our souls we're still the young lions
|
So check it out
|
Gettin' too drunk on Saturdays
|
Check it out
|
Playin' football with the kids on Sundays
|
Check it out
|
Soarin' with the eagles all week long
|
And this is all that we've learned about living
|
This is all that we've learned about living
|
|
A million young poets
|
Screamin' out their words
|
Maybe someday
|
Those words will be heard
|
By future generations
|
Ridin' on the highways that we built
|
Maybe they'll have a better understanding
|
Check it out
|
Hope they'll have a better understanding
|
Check it out
|
Maybe they'll have a better understanding
|
Check it out
|
Maybe they'll have a better understanding
|
Check it out
|
Hope they have a better understanding
|
Check it out.....
