[Verse 1]
Exit, exit, run for your life
Don't leave nothing behind
Burn the boat to the water line
There's no good one-word answer to untie the not
[Chorus]
So when the future screams, "Hello"
And every muscle's screaming, "Go"
What are you waiting for?
[Verse 2]
The kid with lightning spokes always took it too far
He ever had a brother who could tell him
When to lower or raise the bar
But is nature versus nurture, or just luck of the draw?
[Chorus]
So when the future screams, "Hello"
And every muscle's screaming, "Go"
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
[Bridge]
Yeah, the kid with the lightning spokes
Handing out the Craven A smokes
Always took it too far
Yeah, the kid with the banana forks
He's pickin' on the sissy 'bar' dorks
Always took it too far
[Chorus]
So when the future screams, "Hello"
And every muscle's screaming, "Go"
What are you waiting for?
Yeah, what is you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
[Outro]
Always took it too far
Always took it too far, oh yeah
Yeah, the kid with the lightning spokes
Always took it too far
