Lifetime Piling Up |
I have tried marijuana |
I get nervous every time |
There will come a knockin’at the door |
Why is everybody makin’eyes at me? |
I don’t want to know |
Excuse and pardon me Stay for a while |
Maybe we’ll never |
meet again |
I can see my lifetime piling up I can see the days turn into nights |
I can see the people on the street |
Open those windows up A hundred floors below me Pilin’those houses up Pilin’them higher, higher, higher |
I can feel them swayin’back and forth |
Building it higher, higher |
This tower’s learning over |
I got bad coordination |
Stuck a pencil in my eye |
I can hardly wait to get back home |
Why is everybody gettin’paranoid? |
I’s only havin’fun |
Scum-bags and superstars |
Tell me your names |
I’ll make a bet, you’re |
both the same |
I can see my lifetime pilin’up |
Reaching from my bedroom to the stars |
I can see the house where I was born |
When I was growin’up — they say that |
I could never keep my trousers up I remember days and crazy nights |
Are there any pirates on this ship? |
And if they sober up — they’ll have us Home by morning |
Cry, cry, cry |
It’s just you and I Like an automobile |
with no one at the wheel |
Spinning out of control |
We’re all over the road |
In our sexy machine |
All the passengers scream |
Scream, scream! |
I can see my lifetime pilin’up |
I can see it smashin’into yours |
It was not an accident at all |
Open your window up — I hear you laughin' |
Goin’one, two, three, four, five |
Goin’from the bottom to the top |
Maybe I’m holding on too tight |
And now I’m growin’up |
I got a funny feeling |
Pilin’those houses up Pilin’them higher, higher, higher |
Building that highway to the stars |
And turning the music up — Hey! |
I got a winning number |
