hey, hey, hey

what can i say?
and who should i say it to?
should i go away?
on the next train that's coming through
just hitch a ride
to somewhere else
be somebody different
instead of myself

where do i look?
when this world runs out on me
do i grab the hook?
of what seems to set me free
making it small
in a bigger way
my destination
is outer space

(chorus)
and hey, hey, hey,
i'm just getting by
hey, hey, hey
the time sure seems to fly
when i'm not getting in
the universe won't let me win

what do i do?
take a number and wait in line
all that i knew
is in the distance and out of sight
i'm on a roll
yeah that's for sure
it's too damn easy
keeping it pure

(back to chorus)
