I’VE BEEN WAITIN’ MY WHOLE LIFE TO TAKE THIS CHANCE
LEAVE MY DEAD END JOB, THESE DEAD END PLANS
SPENT TOO MUCH TIME SAYING “YES SIR”AND “YES MAM”
GONNA QUIT TODAY, DYE MY HAIR BLACK
GET A BUTTERFLY TATTOOED ON MY LOWER BACK
I’M GONNA SPREAD MY WINGS AND FLY AWAY
EVERYONE’S SAYIN’ “THAT GIRL’S LOST HER MIND”
BUT THERE’S 1000 THINGS I WANNA TRY
I WANNA DANCE LIKE NO ONE’S WATCHING
I WANNA ROCK OUT WITH THE BAND
I WANNA FALL IN LOVE
DRAW TWO HEARTS IN THE SAND
NOT GONNA WASTE ANOTHER MINUTE
NOT GONNA LIVE ANOTHER LIE
I’VE GOT 100 YEARS TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT I LIVED MY LIFE
CAUSE THERE’S 1000 THINGS TO DO BEFORE I DIE
GONNA WIN BIG IN VEGAS, SPEND IT ALL THE SAME NIGHT
HIKE DOWN THE GRAND CANYON, SURF IN HAWAII
AND LAY IN THE GRASS UNDER A BIG MONTANA SKY
I’LL CLIMB THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS, SEE A SHOOTING STAR
MARDI GRAS IN NEW ORLEANS, DANCE ON THE BAR
WITH EVERY MOMENT GONNA LIVE OUT THESE DREAMS
EVERYONE TELLS ME I SHOULD SETTLE DOWN
I SETTLED THEN, I WON’T SETTLE NOW
REPEAT CHORUS
SO I RAN OUT OF THE MEETING
TOLD THE BOSS “I’M LEAVING”
AND CUT MY LIST DOWN TO SIZE
NOW ITS JUST 999
REPEAT CHORUS
