The Road Goes On And On

Lyrics

I don't care what you say
 I never liked you anyway
 Wouldn't give you the time of day
 If I had the time to spend
 You're malicious and downright cruel
 Superstitious, so uncool
 Best wishes, you loudmouthed fool
 I hope I never see you again
 You're a regular jack in the box
 In your clown suit and your goldilocks
 The original liar's paradox, you'll have to google that
 How in the hell do you think you'll make it
 When the real test comes and you just can't fake it
 Your sycophants say they can't take it and leave you lyin' flat
 Well you started out in the wild wild west
 Your tin star pinned to your bulletproof vest
 I must say we were all impressed - but not as much as you
 But your horse is drunk and your friends got tired
 Your aim grew weak and uninspired
 You robbed a train but your gun misfired
 Blew a hole right through your shoe
 Yeah, you're a regular jack in the box
 In your clown suit and your goldilocks
 All duded up in your cowboy crocs, singing the same old song
 How in the hell do you think you'll make it
 When the real test comes and you just can't fake it
 Your sycophants say they can't take it and leave you on your own
 Now you only rant and rave
 Piss and moan and misbehave
 You lost your grip on that flag you wave
 But you wave it right or wrong
 They're still tryin to make amends
 Maybe win back some of your old friends
 Real cowboys say the party never ends
 And the road goes on and on and on...
