Going Out Living by Team Goldie Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm the eternal optimist, but I can no longer twist the
Words of the world and what they serve to my populace
'Cause the language they speak is Greek to me
I speak with these heartbeats, turning nothing to dreams (Hey)
I'm no longer sleeping or napping or Rip Van Winkle-ing as Earth turns on its axis
Tired of spinning my wheels and running in place
Don't want to die on this treadmill, I'm ready to race
[Chorus]
So tonight, I'll be going out living
Tonight, I'll be going out living
[Post-Chorus]
I wrote a note postmarked next New Year's Day
It read, "everything turns out OK"
[Verse 2]
I'm thе retrograde Romeo, and I just need you to know
(Evеryone in New York is a DJ, LA is an actor, PA is a mess, at least in my mirror)
I'm still searching for some clarity and space, hey
Jimmy Cliff with Lasik chasing
I'm looking for a broad, a bird, a doll, a skirt
A lass, a babe, a dame, a girl
Who makes coyote into a two-syllable word
I've been told, Billy Joel, that the good die young, but
I'm still here, so one of us fucked up
[Chorus]
And tonight, I'll be going out living
Oh tonight, I'll be going out living
[Post-Chorus]
I wrote a note postmarked next New Year's Day
It read, "everything turns out OK", yeah
[Bridge: Jimmy Stadt]
Baby
Don't want to grow to be
A bitter old man but that's the path that I lead, whoa
Baby
Don't want to grow to be
A bitter old man but that's the path that I lead, whoa
Yeah
I'm the eternal optimist, but I can no longer twist the
Words of the world and what they serve to my populace
'Cause the language they speak is Greek to me
I speak with these heartbeats, turning nothing to dreams (Hey)
I'm no longer sleeping or napping or Rip Van Winkle-ing as Earth turns on its axis
Tired of spinning my wheels and running in place
Don't want to die on this treadmill, I'm ready to race
[Chorus]
So tonight, I'll be going out living
Tonight, I'll be going out living
[Post-Chorus]
