I am unabashedly 45 - I am surprised to still be alive
'Cos we were all latch-key-kids - running wild doing what we did
Then they started the war on drugs....that was really a war on us
Then we were supposed to die - at the end of 1999
And so we slept through Y2K - we partied hard and woke up the next day
And the same in 2012 - it was the end but we rose above
Lots of us have survived cancer - we can go on we are the adapters
We have the connection - we are the last - connection
And we've got time we never knew that we had
Well they say time flies when you're having fun - does it crash down when the fun is done?
We run run run from the illusion - or have we just run out of time
I am fantastically horrified - at what it takes to just stay alive
We work so much more for less - and the planet is such a mess
And then they started this war or terror - which is designed to go on forever
Forever and ever....it will go on for ever...and we just might be out of time this time
Well they say time flies when you're having fun - does it crash down when the fun is done?
We run run run from the illusion - or have we just run out of time
