Open your eyes and look around
There's no more time for you to waste
You see

The wind is blowing and
The water's running
And now
Your clock of life is ticking
Craving for more

Carry on, carry on
You need to carry on
To stay ahead

Carry on, carry on
You've got to carry on
To beat them

You are the one to lead the game
There's no one else here left to blame
You see

The speed is growing and
Desire's flooding
But now
Your stock of hope is drained
And crying for more

Carry on, carry on
You need to carry on
To keep your pride

Carry on, carry on
You've got to carry on
To fight

If you fail it's just OK
They'll send some flowers to your grave

Carry on, carry on
You need to carry on
To stay ahead

Carry on, carry on
You've got to carry on
To beat them

Carry on, carry on
You need to carry on
To keep your pride

Carry on, carry on
You've got to carry on
To fight

If you win it's cash and wine
They'll praise your courage to the skies
If you fail it's just OK
They'll send some flowers to your grave
