Billy Squier

These are the golden years
When people get what they want
And you can be one of them
cause youre old enough to burn
So you earn your star--you run from the pack
Sell the clothes from off of your back
And youll go far--youll never look back
Your dreams can never die
Welcome to the facts of life
Life on the edge of town...
No one could get near you
But one day you call to them
When they find you where it hurts
You can fall so far you never come up
All youve got is never enough
And just one word can make it so tough
Your dreams were not so wise...
Youre runnin through the facts of life
Oh youre runnin from the facts of life
Oh youre runnin from the facts of life
Oh youre runnin from the facts of life
Oh youre runnin from the facts of life
