Ross Golan And Molehead - The Greater Depression lyrics

All he ever wanted was to skip across the water

Tick tock the clock is getting faster

Vicariously

Lives through the dusty

Pebbles while thrusting

Them onto the pond

So very trusting

Betting the calm is strong

And won't let them drown

He's got to swallow his pride

He followed horrible advice

And hollowed his account

With a roll of the dice twice

Now the market's a rollercoaster ride

He's back to the beginning

With no retirement in sight

Tick tock the clock is getting faster

Can't sit back

And watch the world move backwards

He's got to be moving forwards

He's got to be moving faster

Today he's older

Tomorrow he's older than today

He's got to get bolder before he's older

And throws his life away

Those damn revelations

Running around his head

Increasing frustration

And motivation

Look he's scared to death

He's got to do something today

Before the terrorists start attacking

Before foreign policy instigates another Iraqi

With a suitcase who wants to blow himself up for Allah

Better to die chasing a dream than regret not trying at all

Tick tock the clock is getting faster

Can't sit back

And watch the world move backwards

He's got to be moving forwards

He's got to be moving faster

Passes time to forget time is passing him by

Tick tock the clock is getting faster

Can't sit back

And watch the world move backwards

He's got to be moving forwards

He's got to be moving faster

Tick tock the clock is getting faster
