Everybody Looks Good (at The Starting Line)

Paul Thorn

When you're born it's a beautiful thing They put a pacifier in your mouth You crawl around naked on the kitchen floor And your mom and daddy feel so proud Chorus: Everybody looks good at the starting line Get on your mark, get ready but you better keep this in mind You can hit the ground running like you're shot from a gun But going the distance is the hard part son Everybody looks good at the starting line You fall in love, you tie the knot You're on a permanent honeymoon But twenty years later when the thrill is gone Will she still be in love with you Chorus Yeah, yeah, move out Life is a race we've all got to run So stand up and toe the line I wish that I could say it was all down hill But there are mountains we've got to climb Chorus Chorus Sing it one more time Everybody looks good at the starting line Looks good, looks good at the starting line
