Another Mile

Another mile, another place,
I see the smile upon your face.
We're on the highway, you and I,
The wind is ours and so's the sky
And when we die it's gonna be a monument to us.

Another mile, another yard,
Just put it on your credit card.
We'll spend the day upon the beach,
'Cause out of sight is out of reach
And when we die it's gonna be a monument to us.

Don't make such a fuss, you're wasting your time.
Jump on board the bus, we're riding the zeitgeist.

The sun's asleep but we are not
So throw your money in the pot.
We'll watch the universe expand
And leave our rubbish on the sand
'Cause when we die it's gonna be a monument to us.

Don't make such a fuss, you're wasting your time.
Jump on board the bus,
We're riding the zeitgeist.

No, they'll never ever ever get a hold on us
And we'll always be a step ahead of life's responsibilities.
