Gonowhere - Brendan Benson

Don’t waste your time

On people going nowhere

Make up your own mind

And you’re already halfway there

Hesitate

Or give a second thought

And you’ll be late

Forget what you’ve been taught

You could have it nice or complicated

You could pay full price or you could take it

You could improvise and be creative

You’ve got a lot to give and you’ve got a life to live

Don’t put it off

Another minute longer

Don’t go all soft

You’ve got to be stronger

Don’t speculate

'Cause no one ever knows

It’s up to fate

And you can’t predict the way it goes

You could have it nice or complicated

You could pay full price or you could take it

You could improvise and be creative

You’ve got a lot to give, you’ve got a life to live

You don’t do anything

You won’t do anything

You won’t say anything that isn’t kind

Anything that isn’t nice

Don’t waste your time

On people going nowhere

Don’t wait in line

If you expect to get somewhere

Save your breath

Don’t wanna hear your stance

It’s just a guess

And you only have this chance

You could have it nice or complicated

You could pay full price or you could take it

You could improvise and be creative

You could roll the dice or you could play dead

You could give advice or you could take it

You could have it all, you could have it all

You could have everything you love

Everything you love, everything you love

You could have it all, you could have it all

You could have everything you love

Everything you love, everything you love

You could have it all, you could have it all

You could have everything you love

Everything you love, everything you love

Reach out and take it

You’ve got so much to give

And you’ve got a life to live
