The Never Latelys - Carry On

There's this guy in the shades thinks he's some kinda dude
He feels alright with the wrong kinda attitude
A passer-by with intentions oh so sly
I'm standing here just watching the world go by

I can't go home 'cos I ain't got no place to go
Been here too long and I ain't got nothing to show
And I wonder when lady luck she's gonna show
Have I too many problems or does she wanna know

It's a wonderful world, least that's what somebody said
About as funny as a bullet in the back of your head
And I think about the times that are gonna come
But in the end you can depend on number one

If there's something that you want, we got something that you need
But there's something we denied, we got nothing

Carry on, well you ain't done nothing wrong
Carry on, there's no time to be alone
On your own, on your own

A VIP in the back of a limousine
Shaded glass to hide the man who won't be seen
Ten feet away another world that he won't see
He's on the street, but it's a whole 'nother scene

You get your wings but you can't fly
Can't disappear from a world you can't deny
Can't find my way 'cos it's too dark inside
I'd tell the truth but I end up telling lies

Get a job, get a house, something better than this
Play the game where the rules seem totally fixed
I'll hang around with my charasmatic smile
I'll open doors, but only for a while

If there's something that you want, we got something that you need
But there's something we denied, we got nothing

Carry on, well you ain't done nothing wrong
Carry on, there's no time to be alone
On your own, on your own

Carry on, well you ain't done nothing wrong
Carry on, there's no time to be alone
On your own, on your own

Carry on, well you ain't done nothing wrong
Carry on, there's no time to be alone
On your own, on your own

Carry on, well you ain't done nothing wrong
Carry on, there's no time to be alone
On your own, on your own
