Early in the mornin' I'm layin' on my bed   Stickin' to the rhythm of the music in my head   Rockin' in the mirror, rollin' out the door   Hop into the car and put the pedal to the floor   Callin' out your number, I'll take you for a ride   Find something to keep me satisfied      Runnin' for the money, layin' out the green   It's a tax accountant's nightmare, it's a rock 'n roll dream   The income may be different but the outcome's still the same   You'll never be a winner, boy, until you play the game   Hounded to distraction, racin' to and fro   Losin' my direction keepin' up my status quo   Now I tried, tried, tried, tried   It just don't seem to keep me satisfied      A hundred thousand miles in a 747   Take it all in style if you wanna get to heaven   Chasin' all the action every single night   Never understand it but you try to do it right   Ragged 'round the edges, none the worse for wear   Cuttin' all the corners but they never get me there   Now I try, try, try, try   It just don't seem to keep me satisfied
