The field was bright with clover |
|
I saw the finish sign |
|
I started as a rover |
|
And then victory was mine |
|
I thought the race was over |
|
But they just keep moving the line |
|
They cheered at my persistence |
|
But prayed for my decline |
|
The path of least resistance |
|
Led to Hollywood and Vine |
|
I tried to go the distance |
|
But they just keep moving the line |
|
I jumped all of the hurdles |
|
To break out of the pack |
|
I started on the outside |
|
And then hit the inside track |
|
I left the other fillies |
|
Back at the starting gate |
|
Was ready, on my mark, I got to set |
|
To hurry up and wait |
|
So talent and ambition |
|
Won me a chance to shine |
|
I aced the big audition |
|
But it's rainin' on Cloud Nine |
|
Can't beat the competition |
|
'Cause they just keep moving the line |
|
I handled every corner |
|
Each bump along the track |
|
And when I saw the ribbon, well |
|
There was no turning back |
|
I won the photo finish |
|
I posed for all the men |
|
But before I got my trophy |
|
Well, the race began again |
|
So I made friends with rejection |
|
I've straightened up my spine! |
|
I'll change each imperfection |
|
Till it's time to drink the wine! |
|
I'd toast to resurrection |
|
But they just keep moving the line! |
|
Please give me some direction, |
|
'Cause they just keep moving the line! |
