Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out
[Verse 2]
We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride
[Verse 3]
I'm feeling okay this morning
And you know
We're on a road to paradise
Here we go, here we go
[Verse 4]
We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride
[Verse 5]
Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there, take you there
[Verse 6]
We're on a road to nowhere
Ha! Ha!
We're on a road to nowhere
Yeah! Yeah!
We're on a road to nowhere
Woop! Woop!
[Verse 7]
There is a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
It's alright
Baby, it's alright
And it's very far away
But it's going day by day
And it's alright
Baby, it's alright
Would you like to come along
You can help me sing this song
And it's alright
Baby, it's alright
Don't let them tell you what to do
'Cause they'll make a fool of you
And it's alright
Baby, it's alright
[Verse 8]
There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
It's alright
Baby, it's alright
And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's alright
Baby, it's alright
Would you like to come along
You can help me sing this song
And it's alright
Baby, it's alright
Don't let them tell you what to do
They'll make a fool of you
And it's alright
Baby, it's alright
[Verse 9]
We're on a road to nowhere
Yee-ha!
We're on a road to nowhere
Hit 'em up now, move 'em out!
We're on a road to nowhere
You better believe it baby!
We're on a road to nowhere
