I'm sitting here with the sunshine on me I'm playing hookie it's easy and free I'm kicking back, ignoring the guilt I'm staying here till my blues just melt Forever and a day, I'm running away Life's hard and that's a guarantee But a Margarita helps a man to see Everybody gets the blues sometimes But for me it's been a thousand times Forever and a day I'm running away Well there ain't no reason to go back It's clear they're mounting a ground attack And everywhere I look I see They got their grappling hooks out for me Oh Lord please don't let me drink my life away I'm already in exponential decay Sick of doing what's expected of me I'm staying right here under my palm tree Forever and a day I'm running away Well there ain't no reason to go back It's clear they're mounting a ground attack And everywhere I look I see They got their grappling hooks out for me Oh Lord please don't let me drink my life away I'm already in exponential decay I'm sick of responsibilities I'm happy here under my palm tree Forever and a day I'm running away Forever and a day I'm running away Forever and a day, I'm running away
