Everybody Looks Good at the Starting Line Lyrics

Everybody Looks Good (At The Starting Line)
By 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
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
Sing it one more time
Everybody looks good at the starting line
Looks good, looks good
At the starting line
