(V1)
|
Standing in line at Burger King
|
My hunger’s growing and my stomach’s rumbling
|
The queue’s as long as you can see
|
This big guy pushes in
|
Then turns and laughs at me
|
My temperature rises as I clench my fist
|
I can feel my knickers as they’re starting to twist
|
My brain is scheming revenge somehow
|
Should I smash his head in now
|
|
(CH)
|
I’m not gonna throw it all away to please today
|
Cos I’ve seen your schemes before
|
But I choose to walk along the pathway that I know
|
Will lead me to my goal
|
|
(V3)
|
It’s getting late the party’s through
|
We’ve had a good time now
|
It’s time to say too-roo
|
My best friend’s left to catch some zzz’s
|
His girlfriend stayed and now she’s
|
Making eyes at me
|
I suddenly realise that we’re all alone
|
My mind is saying that I should go home
|
She slides in closer on the big settee
|
Is this really where I want to be
|
|
(BRIDGE)
|
(It’s just passing like the wind)
|
You say to me, I live for the moment
|
You say take all you can today
|
I don’t want to live just for the moment
|
There is a better way
|
And every day we see this generation
|
Throw their lives away
|
It’s like we bow down to temptation
|
And let it have its way
|
Where are our dreams and where is God
|
Can anybody see
|
I’m not ashamed to say
|
I chase the plans He has for me
|
