[Verse 1] I used to hate walkin into that hell hole I had a hardheaded, hardhat named Joe Who wouldve worked for free Just so he could yell at me And I was sittin one day in the break room Shootin the bull with an old man who said Ive been here, for goin on 40 years 39 years ago I shouldve been gone Son, lifes too long [Chorus] Watchin that second hand tick on by Puttin in your time just waitin to die Theres gotta be more out there Theres just gotta be more out there Dont let your dreams get locked away Believe me, youll regret it someday Whoever said lifes too short, well they were wrong Lifes too long [Verse 2] Things have gone from bad to worse And even though I still love her I sat her down Said we need to talk this out Baby, I cant read your mind But I can read between the lines And you wanna leave But you cant break it to me Dont stick around here if this aint watch you want Lifes too long [Chorus] Watchin that second hand tick on by Puttin in your time just waitin to die Theres gotta be more out there Theres just gotta be more out there Dont let your dreams get locked away Believe me, youll regret it someday Whoever said lifes too short, well they were wrong Lifes too long [Bridge] Time flies when youre havin fun But if youre not, it just drags on And on, and on, and on [Outro] Dont let your dreams get locked away Believe me, youll wake up someday Stuck in a place you know you dont belong Baby lifes too long
life, locked, ta, whoever, tick
