Ponce De Leon

Just like Ponce de Leon
 I've traveled far and wide
 When all is said and done
 Have I enjoyed the ride?
 You're puttin' me on
 Is this the best it gets?
 I haven't jumped the ship
 This trip's not over yet
 Everywhere I go
 I see the world around me
 Growing small, moving faster
 Will this be my disaster?
 Everyone I know
 Has counted up their losses
 While I'm still climbing mountains
 Tossing coins into fountains
 Just like Ponce de Leon
 I'm running out of time
 I've conquered all my fears
 I've suffered for my crimes
 You're leadin' me on
 It's either sink or swim
 And when I think I'm done
 I'm ready to begin
 Everyone I know
 Has given up on daydreams
 Socked away their possessions
 Got enslaved to professions
 Everywhere I go
 I'm thirstin' for a chance
 To show the world that I'm clever
 So I might live forever
 Just like Ponce de Leon
 Everywhere I go
 I see the world around me
 Growing small, moving faster
 Will this be my disaster?
 Everyone I know
 Has counted up their losses
 While I'm still climbing mountains
 Tossing coins into fountains
 Just like Ponce de Leon
