On Your Marks, Get Set, Go Away

ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET, GO AWAY
By Gordon Pogoda & Michael Jay

Boy, now this is the end
And don’t you pretend
We’ll work it through
How can I make it clear?
I don’t want you here
I’m through with you

There’s clouds above
So run for cover now
My new ex-love
Let me make it clear - I don’t want you here

On your marks, get set, go away
Say goodbye ‘cause you don’t have a say
You’re no longer welcome to stay
Take away the misery
Make it all a memory
On your marks, get set, go away
Like the clouds on a clearing day
Take a deep, deep breath
On your marks, get set, go away

Boy, when love rushes in
We think we can win
But who can know
That love can leave on a whim
As fast as the wind
Could ever blow

Get on your feet
Get off your seat and go
I won’t be beat
And I won’t compete for the love I need

(Chorus)

Maybe when tomorrow comes
You’ll find a brighter day
But for now, I’ve got to say to you
Be a man, be on your way ...

(Chorus)
