(Words and Music by Mark) If there's a point to this song (please no wagering), it's that people take themselves way too seirously. In one of those rare, lucid moments, after going out to dinner with the guys in DC Talk, I wrote this song.
We know that what we're doing doesn't make much sense And we don't mind if you get all your laughs at our expense We're saving up our treasures 'til we reach the other side We'll get along just fine We ain't as cute as Toby, Mike or Kevin But if the last shall be the first, we'll be the biggest stars in heaven But for now we have to open for the opening band Move into the guest room, hope our parents understand
(Chorus) We're getting nowhere fast We're never gonna last Our fifteen minutes got us about three and a half And maybe someday we'll look back on all of this and laugh We're getting nowhere fast
We don't care if we get rich or famous in this band And so far the whole world is playing right into our hand We don't look to MTV like it's the Holy Grail We've only begun to fail The One-Hit Wonders laugh at us 'Cause at least they had a hit Classic underachievers, man We freely admit But living in a crummy yard beats sitting on the fence We'll just keep on going til we learn to take a hint
(Chorus) We're getting nowhere fast We're never gonna last We're gonna go for the bronze and fly our banners at half mast No time like the present to start living in the past We're getting nowhere fast
(Bridge) This Train is here, hope you enjoy it 'Cause This Train is bound for unemployment We're getting
(Chorus) We're getting nowhere fast We're never gonna last We're gonna go for the bronze and fly our banners at half mast No time like the present to start living in the past We're getting nowhere fast
