Your after-dinner nap is over now
Switch the TV off
The street is waiting
Hey couch potato, put your sneakers on
The course is cleared, the limit's set
Why don't you hurry?
And then one day you might turn round
Your place in here is safe
til you are back to
Turning different pages
Earning higher wages
Don't close this book
Nothing is over yet
It's just begun
Leaving gilded cages
climbing burning stages
The curtain falls
But nothing's over yet
The play is on
Your strange behavior puzzles Mum and Dad
But, hey they have to wait
until it's over
Who's right or wrong the answer's written here,
The letter's sealed, the guards arranged
But don't you worry
And then one day you sure will know
No one will listen closely
'til you are back to..
Turning different pages
Earning higher wages
Don't close this book
Nothing is over yet
It's just begun
Leaving gilded cages
climbing burning stages
The curtain falls
But nothing's over yet
The play is on
