What Do We Need?
We go to bed on a bus, wake up back stage
It's a little harder now than it was
When I was half my age
Just blow off the dust, reset the gauge
We're still making headlines
Even if they aren't front page
What do we need? It's not a lot
I'm pretty sure that we could get by
With half as much as we've got
Where will we be after the spotlight fades?
We're gonna have to learn to live in the slow lane
I'm often asked what it takes
You've got to be good, work hard
And have a hundred lucky breaks
The hardest part is the hearts you break
But if you're lucky then you're always learning from your mistakes
What do we need? It's not a lot
I'm pretty sure that we could get by
With half as much as we've got
Where will we be after the spotlight fades?
We're gonna have to learn to live in the slow lane
Over and over and over again
I leave my family to be with my friends
Older, I'm older, I'm older again
I love it more than anything
But please, make it end
What do we need? It's not a lot
I'm pretty sure that we could get by
With half as much as we've got
Where will we be after the spotlight fades?
We're gonna have to learn to live in the slow lane
We're gonna have to learn to love the slow lane
