about

Based on Time Enough at Last
Season 1, Episode 8 of The Twilight Zone

lyrics

There’s peace in a wasteland
And there’s no one to please or to answer
There’s freedom and a clean page
Just making the best of disaster

Ooooh lesson learned
and it took too long
Who’d have known that

There’s some comfort in back seats
With no way to know what you’re missing
But when the driver’s seat is empty
You manage to seize up the engine

Ooooh lesson learned
and it took too long
Who’d have known to

Take what you can while you can’t see the end of the story
Do what you would if you could but while you still can
And when there’s a will, find a way, ‘cause it won’t just stay waiting stay waiting
The will can turn to a won’t any day

The saddest thing in life can
Be someone who’s wasting their talent
Once you drop all the dead weight
There’s no one else left to be mad at

Ooooh lesson learned
and it took too long
Who’d have known to

Take what you can while you can’t see the end of the story
Do what you would if you could but while you still can
And when there’s a will, find a way, ‘cause it won’t just stay waiting stay waiting
The will can turn to a won’t
Take what you can while you can’t see the end of the story
Do what you would if you could but while you still can
And when there’s a will, find a way, ‘cause it won’t just stay waiting stay waiting
The will can turn to a won’t any day
