Five years have passed since our old friends all exclaimed 'Why rush to waste it away? Don't hang you ambition and sense out to dry' But I still know, just as I knew well back then We had nothing to defend Now all our friends are out mowing the lawn I'm not trying to disrespect But I don't wanna build a house This old place will do just fine To settle for and settle down Never really crossed my mind Oh I'll be living dangerously with you instead I might have said 'buddy you letting things slide Passively biding your time For something better to arrive Only settle for what you're assigned' But I won't quiz any uncomfortable q's Only 'congrats' any 'good for you's Now all our friend are in debt and expecting I'm not trying to disrespect But selfish as I know it sounds I would hate to compromise To settle for the solid ground Never really crossed my mind Oh I'll be living dangerously with you instead I'm not trying to disrespect But I don't wanna build a house This old place will do for now To settle for and settle down Never really crossed my mind Oh I'm not gonna build a house I don't really have the time Oh I'll be living dangerously with you instead
