Steve Forbert - Simply Must Move On lyrics

High school weren't that bad Some of it was fun The jazz band got to swing, yeah The track team got to run But all that's in the past And summer's come and gone It's off to college now You simply must move on Gotta move on to another kinda time and space Gotta move on in the ever running human race Gotta move on, on the whistle blower starts to blow Go Your marriage could not last A meltdown to divorce The whole things over now It's over yes of course You stand out on the street The whole lawn's overgrown You look suspicious here You simply must move on Gotta move on to another kinda time and space Gotta move on in the ever running human race Gotta move on, on the whistle blower starts to blow Go [Instrumental Bridge] Your home's a lovely place You love it goodness knows The perfect part of town It's value only grows But now it's grown too much The taxes here alone You can't afford to stay You simply must move on Gotta move on to another kinda time and space Gotta move on in the ever running human race Gotta move on, on the whistle blower starts to blow Go [Instrumental Interlude] The ceiling's squiggly here They move ya somewheres else Your mind keeps shifting gears Your kids are on themselves Your next moves off the map Beyond the twilight zone You can't stay one more day You simply must move on Gotta move on to another kinda time and space Gotta move on in the ever running human race Gotta move on for the whistle just about to blow Go Go Go Go
