Right Here, Right Now

Michael Monroe

Compositor: Michael Monroe

Who needs gold stars in heaven man?
I want mine right away
I'm sick of broken promises
Some never do what they say
Living in tomorrow or yesterday
You can't be here today
If you gotta ask you'll never know
You snooze you lose anyway

Right here, right now,
Tomorrow don't matter to me
Right here, right now
Whatever's gonna be will be
Right here, right now
Gotta get what's mine today
I want it here right now
'Cos later might be too late

Some selfproclaimed selfish hypocrites
Laid down their laws and rules
To make you think there's some great reward
For all your suffering some day soon
You want it all or none at all,
Fly high or take a fall
Grab your chance with both hands
Make the dream come true

Right here, right now
Gotta get what's mine today
Right here, right now
And don't stand in my way
Right here, right now
Ain't got no time to wait
I want it here right now
'Cos later might be too late

It's an exercise in futility
Like the Chinese fire drill or musical chairs
We won't waste time on conformity
And that mud pie in the sky surely can wait

Right here, right now...
