time off feels like time on stilts and monkey bars<br>
don't look down and keep an eye both ways for cars<br>
now you see it and now you don't<br>
thrilled enough to decide you won't<br>

in which we switch and take turns driving where you wanna be<br>
now you see it and now you don't<br>
thrilled enough to decide you won't<br>
