Walk, no wait, RUN!
See if you can't stop progress
Wear your shoes thin
Your patience thinner
Don't look around
If you do...Damn it all!
Your journey is long
Longer than your nerves
Who cares who you are
Tiptoe around the cacti
Wrinkles your toes in the sand
Hate it all
When you hitch a ride
Don't get in
Spit on the bumper
And wear a grin
When you meet a friend
Give him not your secrets
If you find a treasure
Want more
Crave more
This journey is long
Longer than your nerves
Stop in each great state
Spit out the fresh air
Remember your minds' state
Hate what you want
Want what you hate
Hate what you don't want
Hate what you are
Life's too short to wear a grin
