lyrics

Why do all these roads just lead to nowhere
And all my dreams just turn to dust?
I watch them empty out their pockets
As this old bucket turns to rust

Oh, Ooh, Ooh
I wanna be the one that’s getting on
I wanna be the one that’s getting on
Oh, Ooh, Ooh,
Why does definition never come?
Will my definition ever come?

Standing still is easy ’til you’ve had enough
Like a statue in the park
I watch them living out their daydreams
Whilst mine remain inside my heart

Ooh, Ooh
I wanna be the one that’s getting on
I wanna be the one that’s getting on
Oh, Ooh, Ooh
Why does definition never come?
Will my definition ever come?

It’s getting late, no time to waste
But you’re running round in circles and not getting any closer
Oh it’s such a shame, we’re all the same
Caught up in the human race your body’s getting older
Oh it’s getting late. no time to waste
But you’re running round in circles and not getting any closer
Oh it’s such a shame, we’re all the same
Caught up in the human race your body’s getting older
Oh it’s getting late. no time to waste
But you’re running round in circles and not getting any closer
Oh it’s such a shame, we’re all the same
Caught up in the human race your body’s getting older
Oh it’s getting late. no time to waste
But you’re running round in circles and not getting any closer
Oh it’s such a shame, we’re all the same
Caught up in the human race your body’s getting older

Ooh, Ooh
I wanna be the one that’s getting on
I wanna be the one that’s getting on
Oh, Ooh, Ooh
Why does definition never come?
Will my definition ever come?
