I Love The Now - Jimmy Buffett
By: jimmy buffett, carrie fisher 1986 It's the reason for livin' But that's what I'm givin' I don't need a history lesson To tell me why I mean I'm in no hurry To hustle and scurry There's so much to see And life ain't gonna pass me by Tomorrow's right around the corner I'll get there somehow But I'm stuck in the meantime And I love the now Chorus: I love the now (all the faces and places) I love the now (all the rats and the races) It's the only place I've ever been It's the only way that I know how Don't talk about your superstitions Don't talk about your cats meow But don't talk about tomorrow tonight I love the now It's true we've got problems How do we solve 'em Better break out your thinkin' cap And your old dunce cone Searchin' for answers like interpretive dancers She asks me for reasons Then tells me to wait for the tone The whole damn world's gone crazy The moon is jumpin' over the cow How can you help but Not love the now Chorus: I love the now (all the ranting and raving) I love the now (all the cussin' and craving) It's the only mess I've ever seen It's the only place where I know how Don't talk about your futuristic Don't talk about your "thee's" and "thou's" Don't talk about tomorrow tonight I love the now (horn and harp instrumental) Sittin' on 'g' Waitin' on 'o' I'm exactly where I want to go Chorus: I love the now (all the pain and the pleasure) I love the now (all the blood and the treasure) It's the only circus that I know It's the only ring where I'm allowed Talk about a standing ovation Everybody take a bow But don't talk about tomorrow tonight I love the now But don't talk about tomorrow tonight I love the now No don't talk about tomorrow tonight I love the now
