30/90

Stop the clock
Take time out
Time to regroup
Before you lose the bout

Freeze the frame
Back it up
Time to refocus
Before they wrap it up

Years are getting shorter
The lines on your face are getting longer
Feel like you're treading water
But the riptide's getting stronger

Don't panic, don't jump ship
Can't fight it, like taxes
At least it happens only once in your life

They're singing, "Happy birthday"
You just want to lay down and cry
Not just another birthday
It's thirty-ninety
Why can't you stay 29?
Hell, you still feel like you're 22
Turn 30, 1990
Bang! You're dead
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do?

Clear the runway
Make another pass
Try one more approach
Before you're out of gas

Friends are getting fatter
Hairs on your head are getting thinner
Feel like a clean up batter
On a team that ain't a winner

Don't freak out, don't strike out
Can't fight it, like City Hall
At least you're not alone
Your friends are there too

They're singing, "Happy birthday"
You just wish you could run away
Who cares about a birthday?
But thirty-ninety

Hey, can't you be optimistic?
You're no longer the ingenue
Turn 30, 1990
Voom! You're passe
What can you do?
What can you do?
What can you do?
