Lyrics

standing in line

Waiting in a queue

one at a time

Proceeding individually

keep your tears from running

Hold back your emotions

live fast in glory

Live a rapid life filled with achievements


standing in line at the market

Waiting in line, this time at a market

one minutes to six on a saturday

Specific time on a Saturday evening

put the beers under my jacket

Concealing beers in clothing

money deep in my pocket

Money securely stored


the old lady in front of me talking

An elderly lady ahead engaged in conversation

one coin at a time in the socket

Adding coins one by one

10 seconds to go and i'm losing it

Pressure builds with only 10 seconds left

1, 2, 3, make a run for it

Deciding to make a quick escape


jumped over the counter to beat it

Leaping over the counter to escape

five seconds of fame in the mini market

Gaining a brief moment of recognition in the market


lost a shoe on the run

Experiencing setbacks like losing a shoe

tore a hole in my favorite sweater

Damaging a favorite sweater in the process

you were breathless of admiration

Receiving admiration from someone

had the beers on the corner of the station

Positioning beers at a strategic location


started going in the wrong direction

Choosing a wrong path in life

didn't live up to the expectation

Failing to meet others' expectations

it's ok - life is ok

Accepting that life has its ups and downs


lost sense of the word affection

Losing the sense of affection

lost track of your sexual traction

Losing focus on personal relationships

i need to stay just one more day

Expressing a desire to endure one more day
