Everybody's headed somewhere
And they want to get there faster but
I'm taking my
I'm taking my sweet time

I used to be in such a hurry
So much, so quick, so sick with worry now
I'm taking my
I'm taking my sweet time

I don't need to solve the maze
I'll stretch like a shadow and fade like the haze
I'll work all day, but I won't deliver
I'll grow like a tree in the LA river

Everybody's selling something
Looking for the highest bidder but
I'm taking my
I'm taking my sweet time

I don’t need to solve the maze
I'll stretch like a shadow and fade likе the haze
I’ll work all day, but I won't delivеr
I'll grow like a tree in the LA river

Everybody's selling something
Looking for the highest bidder but
I'm taking my
I'm taking my sweet time

'Cause everything is shoots and ladders
And someone else telling me what matters so
I'm taking my
I'm taking my sweet time
