You did all you could, gave all you had to give
Until you just plumb ran out of time
You lost heart, you lost your reason for being
Got all the way down to your very last dime
Don't you waste another day, don't you let time slip away
You may find you're at the thin end of the wedge
Prepare for the worst, jump in headfirst
Take a stand and make a pledge
Get ready to go, no don't you be slow
The horn is honking, your ride's here
Pack up your stuff, make sure you have enough
Run out to the curb, your ride's here
You did all you could, gave all you had to give
You dug your heels into the bottomless deep
Why should you care, you had nothing to gain
While the world around you has fallen asleep
Hop aboard, hop aboard, hop aboard
Get on, get on, get on
We're pulling out of here right as we speak
Are you going to be with us
Are you going to stand there and dawdle
Are going to jump right in
And rule with the rest of the meek
