Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Where You Come From Lyrics
It's not where you come fromIt's more where you're goingAnd knowing the going might get strangeThe world's greatest writersAre all drunks and fightersGet going that isn't going to changeWill you still wager on the egg?Is it the egg or are you chicken?There's an outside possibilityYour life might start to kick inYour heart will start the raceWill you chase or set the pace?Brace yourselfThe plot's about to thickenIt's not where you come fromIt's more where you're goingAnd knowing the going might get strangeThe world's greatest writersAre all drunks and fightersGet going that isn't going to changeIt's been a thousand years or twoAnd still the seconds keep on clickingClogging clogs and greasing gearsStill you can't stop the clock from tickingIt's time that's overratedAnd being great's become outdatedThe apples, oranges?Not worth pickingIt's not where you come fromIt's more where you're goingAnd knowing the going might get strangeThe world's greatest writersAre all drunks and fightersGet going that isn't going to changeWhere is it we're going?Who was it who said it?Which stones are worth throwing?Who will we discredit?A pathetic aestheticIn a world less poeticIt's not where you come fromIt's going, go get itIt's going, go get itIt's going, go get itIt's going, go get it
