LYRICS
[Verse]
Sick and tired of gurus,
Making all that dough,
Sitting here just wondering,
How the heck they know.
Time is running out so fast
… for Susan Gast
[Chorus]
Penning poems just for fun,
With self-deprecating wit.
What’s the point, I ask myself?
I can’t find a place to fit!
[Bridge]
I want something to truly last,
Is that too much to ask?
Time is running out
… for Susan Gast
[Verse]
Don’t give up’s my internal scream.
For all the while it’s just a dream.
Far away from my outstretched hand
Is that never-never land.
[Verse]
Working seven days a week.
Staring at the screen.
Trying hard to make a buck.
I feel like a “has been.”
[Verse]
I know I sound real selfish.
I try and try and try.
Why is my stuff not good enough?
I know the reason why…
[Bridge]
Time is running out so fast
… for Susan Gast
… for Susan Gast
[Verse]
Millenniums, Gen X, Gen Z,
The ones that get it done.
I’m a Boomer through and through,
They’ve got me on the run.
[Verse]
I won’t give up, I will not quit,
Even though I should.
Shiny objects, they have bit
Where I knew they would…
[Verse]
Penning poems just for fun,
With self-deprecating wit.
What’s the point, I ask myself?
I can’t find a place to fit!
… for Susan Gast
… for Susan Gast
[Verse]
Don’t give up’s my internal scream.
For all the while it’s just a dream.
Far away from my outstretched hand
Is that never-never land.
[Verse]
Working seven days a week.
Staring at the screen.
Trying hard to make a buck.
I feel like a “has been.”
[Verse]
I know I sound real selfish.
I try and try and try.
Why is my stuff not good enough?
I know the reason why…
[Bridge]
Time is running out so fast
… for Susan Gast
… for Susan Gast
[Verse]
Millenniums, Gen X, Gen Z,
The ones that get it done.
I’m a Boomer through and through,
They’ve got me on the run.

I gotta say, SupaBees, this song really hits home. Never thought I’d find something that so perfectly sums up how it feels to be stuck in the digital rush. It’s like, you know the game, but somehow you’re still not winning. Kudos for putting it into words.
Right? It’s rare to find songs that capture this vibe without sounding too preachy or out of touch. Props to the artist.
haha, this song is me trying to use snapchat. every day feels like im running out of time to get with what’s hip. Thanks SupaBees, for showing us boomers still got it, in a way.
I’m intrigued by the lyrics focusing on the generational divide, especially the mention of Millenniums, Gen X, and Gen Z. Do you think this song can bridge the understanding gap between these groups? It feels like it’s speaking to everyone.
interesting point! It’s cool to see all generations relate to something. Shows music really is universal.
Absolutely, SarahQ. It’s not just the lyrics but the melody too that brings us together. Reminds me of the classic rock philosophy.
