lyrics

Well life is just a game, a game every single one of us must play
And you've got to roll the dice, every single day
Well you can go forward and you can go back
But just don't stand still wating for something to happen!

Running running running running running every single day
But the faster that your run, you cannot run away
Well you can run forward and you can run back
But just don't stand still waiting for something to happen!

Pin codes bar codes dues and taxes
Email your cell phone all your faxes
Letters and numbers symbols and signals
Lots of copies but no originals
Fall down a chute, climb up a ladder
Try your best, nothing seems to matter
Resumes, curriculum vitaes, applications and references
It's up to you to choose all your preferences

Well you can go forward and you can go back
But just don't stand still waiting for something to happen
