0:23A million young poets
0:25Screamin' out their words
0:27To a world full of people
0:29Just livin' to be heard
0:32Future generations
0:34Ridin' on the highways that we built
0:36I hope they have a better understanding
0:41Check it out
0:42Goin' to work on Monday
0:45Check it out
0:46Got yourself a family
0:50Check it out
0:51All utility bills have been paid
0:54You can't tell your best buddy
0:56That you love him
0:58So check it out
1:00Where does our time go
1:03Check it out
1:04Got a brand new house in escrow
1:08Check it out
1:09Sleepin' with your back to your loved one
1:13This is all that we've learned about happiness
1:40Check it out
1:41Forgot to say hello to my neighbors
1:44Check it out
1:45Sometimes I question my own behavior
1:49Check it out
1:50Talkin' about the girls that we've seen on the sly
1:54Just to tell our souls we're still the young lions
1:57So check it out
1:59Gettin' too drunk on Saturdays
2:02Check it out
2:03Playin' football with the kids on Sundays
2:07Check it out
2:08Soarin' with the eagles all week long
2:11And this is all that we've learned about living
2:17This is all that we've learned about living
2:53Check it out
2:57Check it out
3:02Check it out
3:07Check it out
3:12A million young poets
3:14Screamin' out their words
3:16Maybe someday
3:18Those words will be heard
3:20By future generations
3:22Ridin' on the highways that we built
3:25Maybe they'll have a better understanding
3:29Check it out
3:30Hope they'll have a better understanding
