(verse one)
I want a new kind of day job
The kind I don't have to work
I wanna stand fast on the lazy side
I just might let the phone keep ringing

So put the money on the bed
Leave inhibition at the door
Listen close you can hear me screaming
I don't wanna dream anymore

(pre-chorus)
So let me go
I'm on my own now

(chorus)
I wanna be a sports star, drive a race car
Wanna walk on the moon and do the things
I never really thought I could do
I know that maybe it's a longshot but I won't give up

Step after step after step in the right direction, I'll live it up
I know it's only an opinion
But I bet I could rule the world

(verse two)
I wanna move so fast
I wanna make this last
I'll figure out a way that I can have the best of both those worlds
But probably not

I need to stop using words that I can't spell
I need stop buying stock from this wishing well
If this isn't therapy
My mind got the best of me again

(chorus)
I wanna be a sports star, drive a race car
Wanna walk on the moon and do the things
I never really thought I could do
I know that maybe it's a longshot but I won't give up

Step after step after step in the right direction, I'll live it up
I know it's only an opinion
But I bet I could rule the world

(bridge)
I've been standing in the dark too long to tell
If I've been living with my eyes shut tight or just hiding far too well
