Never Settle Down
Lyrics
Life kinda ends at the altar one day
Cuts of your wings so you can't fly away
What if I wanna keep travelling on?
Wanna die old but live every day young?
What if I wanna work for myself?
Not just to fit on somebody's shelf,
Time is fast, is it too much to ask
Just to keep on having fun?
Maybe go to college, maybe get a car
Maybe make wishes on a shooting star
Maybe get married and maybe get a kid
Maybe start dreaming of the things that I did
Maybe buy a house with a hundred rooms
Maybe play scrabble on a Sunday afternoon
Maybe end up in an old folks home
Maybe end up dying tired and alone
Time is fast, is it too much to ask
Just to keep on having fun?
So now I'm sitting in my rocking chair
Thinking 'bout the time when i had my hair
Thinking if I coulda played a better kinda show
But I'm too late, now it's time I gotta go
What if I could've worked for myself
Not just to fit on somebody's shelf
Time is fast, is it too much to ask
Just to keep on having fun?
Yes, I'm sure it ain't hard and it won't do any harm
Just to keep on having fun
Life kinda ends at the altar one day
Cuts of your wings so you can't fly away
What if I wanna keep travelling on?
Wanna die old but live every day young?
What if I wanna work for myself?
Not just to fit on somebody's shelf,
Time is fast, is it too much to ask
Just to keep on having fun?
Maybe go to college, maybe get a car
Maybe make wishes on a shooting star
Maybe get married and maybe get a kid
Maybe start dreaming of the things that I did
Maybe buy a house with a hundred rooms
Maybe play scrabble on a Sunday afternoon
Maybe end up in an old folks home
Maybe end up dying tired and alone
Time is fast, is it too much to ask
Just to keep on having fun?
So now I'm sitting in my rocking chair
Thinking 'bout the time when i had my hair
Thinking if I coulda played a better kinda show
But I'm too late, now it's time I gotta go
What if I could've worked for myself
Not just to fit on somebody's shelf
Time is fast, is it too much to ask
Just to keep on having fun?
Yes, I'm sure it ain't hard and it won't do any harm
Just to keep on having fun
