We got our first McDonald's
|
And it made the headline news
|
In a town where no one locks their doors at night
|
All the lights are flashing yellow
|
We just roll right through
|
And there is not a superstore in sight
|
But there's more to life
|
I told myself I'd say good-bye
|
By the time the clock struck twelve
|
|
But I can't pull the trigger on that changing world out there
|
With all these dreams I can't believe I'm still standing here
|
It's time to face the fact that I'm not the rebel that I thought
|
'Cause midnights gone but I'm not
|
|
Everyone I run into
|
Has known me all my life
|
There are no secrets you can call your own
|
Since the age of seventeen
|
I've faced the morning light
|
Saying this day is the day I'm gonna go
|
All I have to do is drive away
|
But the things that make me crazy
|
Always make me stay
|
|
But I can't pull the trigger on that changing world out there
|
With all these dreams I can't believe I'm still standing here
|
It's time to face the fact that I'm not the rebel that I thought
|
'Cause midnights gone but I'm not
|
|
It's time to face the fact I'm not the rebel that I thought
|
'Cause midnights gone, midnights gone
|
but I'm not
|
