Too Much Too Soon

At night as you look to the west you’ll notice that the sun sets with a sigh.
As it travels o’er the earth it’s sometimes glad the cloud obscures it’s sight.
It sees how many people, try to make ends meet, and that all for one and one for all is nothing but a load of bull,

so many people say him, I wanna rule the world all for one. All the world.

Vs 2
The train of progress pushes on through the stations one by one.
Ear marked for profit, ooh the mighty dollar sings its song.
Some people don’t know what they’ve got, until it’s gone, and then it’s often too late to turn the odds around.
We’ve gotta stop this train, it’s headin’ for a crash and kill us all.

Too much too soon, you know that’s what they always said was wrong.
You can cover it with gold, and glitter and anything you want.
But everything will come back, to where it all began, the children will all pay our debts it seems we always have.  As long as we’re OK today we’ll think about tomorrow when it comes.
So many people say him I wanna rule the world all for one.
We’ve gotta stop this train, it’s headin’ for a crash and kill us all.
