At the first bell of the day
They rise up from where they lay
And look down with the promise in their hands
A promise to get out
This ain´t what it´s all about

There´s always lots of reasons for their plans
When that golden sun shines through
There´s always one more thing to do
Just one more stab into the wishing well

That´s what they always say
I´m getting out
That´s what they always say
Ain´t that just what they always say
That´s what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
That´s what they always say
Ain´t that just what they always say

I´m getting out, I´m holding on
I´m hanging in, the time is wrong
And every morning brings another reason
A piece of cake, no lion share

Just one more dice and you´ll be there
That golden bridge is just around the bend

That´s what they always say
I´m getting out
That´s what they always say
Ain´t that just what they always say
That´s what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
That´s what they always say
Ain´t that just what they always say

Tomorrow is another day
The money junkie fades away
That golden bridge is just around the bend

That´s what they always say
I´m getting out

That´s what they always say
Ain´t that just what they always say
That´s what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
That´s what they always say
Ain´t that just what they always say
