Lyrics

Running Toward the Future

I got my eyes on the prize
That’s why they’re twice their size
I know where I’m going
And it’s taking all my time
These new kids, they’re animals
They ain’t got a home
So I got to stay at the office late
On email or the phone

Everybody’s runnin runnin runnin
Toward the future
Keeps us so on edge and so annoyed
Cause when you do arrive
It’s just the Present
The very thing you’re trying to avoid

Gotta make money in my prime
So I can kick it down the line
Get a little place in the Outer Banks
If I can pick one up in time
Guitar in a screened in porch
There’s a little town I know
By the light of a tiki torch
But I got a long way to go

Everybody’s runnin runnin runnin
Toward the future
Keeps us so on edge and so annoyed
Cause when you do arrive
It’s just the Present
The very thing you’re trying to avoid
