Lyrics Second Transition - Stephen Sondheim

Second Transition

Some roads are soft
And some are bumpy
Some roads you really fly
Some rides are rough
And leave you jumpy
Why make it tough
By getting grumpy?
Plenty of roads to try
Nineteen seventy-two…
Nineteen seventy-one…
One trip
Some roads are soft and some are bumpy
All you get is one quick ride
Some roads you really fly
Look around a bit
One quick ride
Some roads are rough and leave you jumpy
Through the countryside
Why make it tough by getting grumpy?
Stay on the track
Plenty of roads to try…
Nineteen seventy…
Some roads you really fly…
Nineteen sixty-nine…
How does it start to go
Does it slip away slow
So you never even notice
It’s happening?
Nineteen sixty-eight…
