I was born a little premature,   Mom just couldn't take no more
G5                       F5    G5                     F5         
Had no time to learn to cry, Goodbye, Mama, got to fly
G5                   F5             C5    
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye

Entered school when I was two, PhD'd that afternoon
Never entered any sports, Didn't look too good in shorts
Got divorced when I was four

Chorus:
D5 
I've seen everything there is, I've done everything there is
     G5 
I've met everyone but Liz now I've even met ol' Liz
D5 
No time for relationship, skip the foreplay, let 'er rip
          G5 
You gotta beat the clock, beat the clock, Beat the clock, beat the clock

I did lots of travelling, Parts of me unraveling
The Army then rejected me, Said I had two flat feet
Wore them out when I was three

Too bad there ain't ten of you, Then I'd show you what I'd do
I could cheat on five of you and be faithful to you too
But there's only one of you

Chorus
