about
The rat race never ends. Work. Money. Bills. Work, work,
work. The frustration of the never ending loop is sang with a
glimmer of hope and perseverance. - Gary
lyrics
Makin ’ It
(Gary Mitchell)
Late for work again.
When does this ever end?
So much to do and so little time.
Jus’ tryin’ to get through,
But no matter what I do,
Seems like I’m always runnin’ behind.
And, after a while,
It gets hard just to care.
You try and you try and don’t get anywhere.
But I keep runnin’ round
And I just can’t slow down.
It won’t stop and I don’t think I can take it.
So I’m low, reachin’ high:
Brings me down, don’t know why.
Goin’ crazy just tryin’ to make it.
I’m pulled so many ways,
I’m livin’ in a daze.
I can’t believe it’s Monday again!
Time is flyin’ by.
It’s drainin’ out my life.
I’m runnin’ out of ways to bend.
And after a while,
It gets hard just to care.
You try and you try and don’t get anywhere!
But I keep runnin’ round,
And I just can’t slow down.
It won’t stop and I don’t think I can take it.
So I’m low, reachin’ high:
Brings me down, don’t know why.
Goin’ crazy just tryin’ to make it.
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
And after awhile,
It gets hard just to care.
‘Cause we try...
Oh, I try,
and don’t get anywhere!
Don’tcha’ know that I keep runnin’ round
And I just can’t slow down.
It won’t stop and I don’t think I can take it!
So I’m low, reachin’ high:
Brings me down, don’t know why.
Goin’ crazy just tryin to make it!
Whoa, I keep runnin’ round
And I just can’t slow down.
I think I can take it!
So I’m low, reachin’ high:
Brings me down, don’t know why.
Just tryin’ to make it!
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
Is anyone out there really makin’ it?
