Well it's an open road
and it's full of life
stretching on and on
but it stops somewhere
because time keeps ticking away
time keeps on ticking away

Let me tell you about a boy
an average spud
he was twice in love
with two very different girls
knowing life is short
he told them both the truth
but they already knew
hey

Now he's a happy guy

Well it's a random turn
on a game show wheel
unpredictable
but it stops somewhere
because time keeps ticking away
time keeps on ticking away

Let me tall you about a man
a tragic case
love kicked in his face
he shriveled up and died
from a broken heart
reincarnated as a work of art
he's got a brand new start
hey

Now he's a happy guy
