Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Life is heavy so we gotta pick it up, I said we gotta pick it up before it crumbles away
Nobody gives a shit about your problems, and they sure don't give a shit for what you're doing today
Keep learning as the planet keeps on turning, or it's gonna throw us off if we just follow the herd
It's full throttle, but a man's already got all of the tools he's gonna need to make his way in the world
[Chorus]
We're all born with a ticket for a one-way ride
Spitting fire at the stars until the planets collide
We're all waiting for the universe to give us a sign
It's not rocket science, and we're doing alright
[Verse 2]
The clock is ticking, so we gotta step it up, I said we gotta step it up before it all runs away
You need desire and a whole lot of fire in the belly for the battle that we're fighting each day
You gotta hustle, use a little bit of muscle, and stand up to be counted if you wanna survive
Don't run for cover or rely on any others as it's you and you alone that keeps the vision alive
[Chorus]
We're all born with a ticket for a one-way ride
Spitting fire at the stars until the planets collide, yeah
We're all waiting for the universe to give us a sign
It's not rocket science, and we're doing alright
I said we're doing alright
[Verse 3]
The sky is falling, so we gotta pick it up, I said we gotta pick it up before it all crashes down
You gotta take it with a little pinch of salt and be accepting of your faults if you've been playing the clown
I'm not a teacher, and I'm certainly no preacher, but I've got a bit to say, and I'm the one with the mic
We're all trying, and there's no way of denying that someday it's gonna end, so do whatever you like
[Chorus]
We're all born with a ticket for a one-way ride
Spitting fire at the stars until the planets collide, yeah
We're all waiting for the universe to give us a sign
It's not rocket science, and we're doing alright
Said we're doing alright
[Outro]
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
It's not rocket science, I said we're doing alright
