I gotta do something that's what they say 
Because time is ticking away 
I gotta get a job and work 8 hours a day 
Because time is ticking away 
I gotta quit my school and become a famous DJ 
Because time is ticking away 
I gotta travel the world and learn Spanish someday 
Because time is ticking away 

Time is ticking away 
And there are too many things I wanna say 
Like "I love you" "Thanks for being there" 
"Seize the day" "Enjoy the moment" 
Because time is ticking away 

I know one day I will pass away 
I can worry, I can cry, I can pray 
But I rather like to dance instead 
and look back on the great times we had 
I don't need many friends 
but those I have are real 
Together we're down for life 
United we stand, devided we fall 
All for one and one for all
