lyrics

Nowhere Fast

That boy is goin nowhere fast
I’m thinkin that his future will look just like his past
He ain’t goin’ from here to there,
No he ain’t goin anywhere
That boy is goin nowhere fast

That boy is goin nowhere fast
He learned in Sunday School the first shall be last
When he was young his mom was proud,
Now she just yells “for crying out loud
Boy, you’re going nowhere fast”

Along about noon he leaves his bed
Then he plops down on the couch instead
Checks his phone, grabs the remote
Then goes through the pantry like a barnyard goat

That boy is going nowhere fast
He is just so lazy, that I am quite impressed
Change a light bulb, chop onion,
Or mow the grass, it don’t get done
That boy is going nowhere fast.

Along about noon he leaves his bed
Then he plops down on the couch instead
Checks his phone, scratches his crotch
The whole damn thing is getting’ hard to watch.

That boy is goin nowhere fast
Everyone’s concerned, but he’s having a blast
His To Do list ain’t a lot: it’s
1. Drink beer
2. Smoke pot
That boy is going nowhere fast
That boy is goin nowhere fast
