I gotta do something that's what they say
Because time is ticking away
I gotta get a job and work 8 hours a day
Because time is ticking away
I gotta quit my school and become a famous DJ
Because time is ticking away
I gotta travel the world and learn Spanish someday
Because time is ticking away
Time is ticking away
And there are too many things I wanna say
Like "I love you" "Thanks for being there"
"Seize the day" "Enjoy the moment"
Because time is ticking away
I know one day I will pass away
I can worry, I can cry, I can pray
But I rather like to dance instead
