    Then play the verse 4 times
 
He wakes up in the morning.
Does his teeth, bite to eat and he's rolling.
Never changes a thing.
 
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns he forgets them.
And remembers being small.
Playing under the table and dreaming.
 
Chorus>
Take these chances.
Place them in a box until a quieter time.
Lights down you up and die.
 
Driving in on this highway.
All these cars and up on the sidewalk.
People in every direction.
No words exchanged no time to exchange.
 
Break>
And all the little ants are marching.
Red and black antenna waving.
They all do it the same.
They all do it the same wayyyyyyyyy!
 
Candy man tempting the thoughts of our
Sweet tooth to torture the weightloss
Programm cutting the corners
loose end loose end cut cut
on the fence but not to offend cut cut...cut cut
 
Chorus>
Take these chances .
Place them in a box until a quieter time.
Lights down you up and die.
