No More Excuses - Graham Parker

Every street is a crowded place

Every crowd is too much to face

Every shoulder is something hard

Don't want to lean on

Every day we are running out

Our caps to catch in the pouring rain

Feel the loneliness and the doubt

I have to shout for

Hey no more excuses

I made them enough

I said hey no more excuses

It's time to get tough

Every step is another chance

Every moment slips through our hands

Every kiss is another flame

I don't want to put out

Every night when I fall asleep

I know I never want to wake up

Into a world where you're not around

Can't let you down

Hey no more excuses

I made them enough

I said hey no more excuses

It's time to get tough

Don't break down in this cold town

Where the people live in fear

There's a wheel in my hand

But I can't steer

I never noticed you always win

I never thought about how to live

I only took it for granted and like a fool

Let it all slip by

But if you forgive me of my mistakes

I will try to find what it takes

In this soul there's a heart

That aches to give you my lesson

Hey no more excuses

I made them enough

I said hey no more excuses

It's time to get tough

Don't break down in this cold town

Where the people live in fear

There's a wheel in my hand

That I can't steer

I can't steer

Oh don't break down in this cold town

Where the people live in fear

There's a wheel in my hand

That I can't steer

I can't steer

I can't steer

I said hey no more

Hey no more

Hey no more

Hey no more

Hey
