Warm pavement walks
Leaving footprints in pollen
Now it's all in my head
Just one more place still frozen in time
Always running round 10 feet tall
Settling in just in time
For the long haul
Ready to burst at the seam
Like a cherry bomb thrown in the mail box
Left only with the smell of gunpowder
Worse of all is the time spent thinking
How everything stays the same
(Everything stays the same)
Holding on to a sparkler in my hand
Until it starts to sting
Waited up until the last minute
Waited up until the last minute
What's your plan to get the work finished young man
A gnat in my eye
And sweat soaked through my skin
Oh what I wouldn't give
To see it rain with the sun still out
Something about the devil's wife
Worse of all is the time spent thinking
How everything stays the same
(Everything stays the same)
Holding on to a sparkler in my hand
Until it starts to sting
Waited up until the last minute
Waited up until the last minute
What's your plan to get the work finished young man
Young man
Young man
Young man
