There Goes Your Life
There goes your life
Ain't ya gonna get it?
It's gonna pick up speed
Ain't ya gonna stop it?
I don't know where it's going
But it doesn't look so great
I think you better stop it
Before it gets too late
I think you ought to slow it down
Before it gets in a crash
Think of what may lie ahead
And don't do anything else rash
There goes your life
I hope that it can swim
I hope that nothing too bad comes
Because of your sudden, stupid whim
There goes your life
You set it on it's way
Now ain't ya gonna catch it?
Or shall we close our eyes and pray?
