Lyrics:

Don't waste your good life on Mona
There's no good reason to go there
You'll find out when she gets close
All too soon.

She'll bring you nothing but sorrow
And you'll start dreading tomorrow
Time is a thing you can't borrow
So cut her loose

Like staying out late on Sunday
And paying for it on Monday
Things just get lost in a vague haze ...
Quite an unpleasant surprise
Hey You

just look at them all
just look at them all
taking the long way home
Not I
I'm smarter than them
And it'll take years to get the way I am

Yes I'm smart
Smart, but lonely
And so I cry
On cold shoulders
If I'm so smart
Then why the hell do I still suffer?
Why the hell do I still try?
Tell me ...

For dreams go on forever
So live for today
And count all your blessings
You've got to
Treasure every day

Dreams are the one place
Where fantasy escapes
But don't bet your life on dreams
For dreams lead on forever
So live for today
And count all your blessings
You've got to treasure every day

Don't waste your time
Chasing after dreams
Cause you'll get too tired
To go on

For dreams lead on forever
So live for today
Count all your blessings
You've got to
You've got to

Not waste your good life on Mona
She's just a dream
You can't own her
It's such a risk when you follow
Your heart

She'll bring you nothing but sorrow
And you'll start dreading tomorrow
Time slips away as you follow
Your heart

For dreams lead on forever
So live for today
Just count all your blessings
And treasure every day
