Wave goodbye to all your friends when you made it big, mm Got a big old desk and a door with your name engraved on it You're never satisfied unless you're chomping at the bit (Oh yeah) You got the keys to a penthouse suite with an ice-cold bed in it
When you're least expecting it Maybe somewhere down the line Life will catch up to you sometime, mm Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na (Oh yeah, ooh-ah)
Got the gold wrist watch and stocks in bio-fuel, woo-ooh Yeah you're makin' it rain but the flood's gonna soak you through (Oh, ah yeah) And that dry champagne can leave a bitter taste Oh, when you're back in your college days Eating macaroni off a paper plate
When you're least expecting it Maybe somewhere down the line Life will catch up to you sometime Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na (Oh woah, oh yeah)
When it's all plain sailing When your feet don't touch the ground That's when your life comes back around, yeah So careful when you climb the ladder 'Cause you don't know how high it goes It's lonely at the top, or so the saying goes
Lost your trust fund and that trophy wife, mm Her smile never hid the fact she wanted much more out of life And every one that you chewed up to feed your appetite Oh safe to say, you're a castaway in your lonely paradise
I bet you weren't expecting it Buddy, now it's the end of the line Life has caught up to you this time, yeah Oh, life has caught up to you this time
(Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na) Oh, life has caught up to you this time (Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na) Yeah, woah, life has caught up to you this time (Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na) Oh, life has caught up, caught up caught up, caught up to you (Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na) Oh, life has caught up to you this time
