Hurry Hurry Time

Hurry Hurry Time

I want my birthday to come

I want to blow out the candles on my cake

I want to open presents and have lots of fun

Hurry Hurry Time

I want to go to bed late

I want to stay out with my friends

I want to drive and have dates

Hurry Hurry Time

I want to be done with school

I want to make my own decisions

Style my hair and look cool

Hurry Hurry Time

I want my college days to end

I want to have a job and work

A paycheck to save and spend

Hurry Hurry Time

I want to build a better life

I want to  live in a nice house

Be a happy husband or wife

Hurry Hurry Time

I want our babies to be born

I want to cook and read and watch them grow

Fill our house with a child's laughter and song

Slow Slow Time

I want to keep middle age out the door

I want to live, laugh and love as I always have

Now and for many years more

Slow Slow Time

I want to sidestep the losses of age

I don't want health issues or relationship issues

Or challenges earning an income or wage

Slow Slow Time

I want to see my grandkids grow and do great things

I want to be there when space travel becomes common

And experience what the future will bring

And thus we spend our lives

Trying to hurry time when we are younger

And trying to slow time when we are older

And only when we realize

Yesterday is gone

Tomorrow may never come

Only then we realize

How important it is

To make every minute count

Let's begin!
