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 roller coaster 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
