(Dennis DeYoung)
|
It's six o'clock
|
Good morning sounds are everywhere
|
The warmth of spring, a gentle breeze blows through my hair
|
|
I hurry through my life never stopping to see
|
How beautiful it was meant to be
|
|
I'm just a prisoner in a king's disguise
|
Broken dreams as we shuffle by
|
|
It's six o'clock it's quitting time I'm done for the day
|
Out on the streets I overheard a lady say
|
We now have everything or so people say
|
But now this emptiness haunts me every day
|
We seek the lion's share never knowing why
|
Come alive spread your wings and fly
|
|
Pieces of eight
|
The search for the money tree
|
Don't cash your freedoms in for gold
|
Pieces of eight
|
Can't buy you everything
|
Don't let it turn your heart to stone
|
