ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET, GO AWAY
by Gordon Pogoda & Michael Jay
Boy, now this is the end
And don't you pretend
We'll work it through
How can I make it clear?
I don't want you here
I'm through with you
There's clouds above
So run for cover now,
My new ex-love,
Let me make it clear - I don't want you here
On your marks, get set, go away
Say goodbye 'cause you don't have a say
You're no longer welcome to stay
Take away the misery
Make it all a memory
On your marks, get set, go away
Like the clouds on a clearing day.
Take a deep, deep breath
On your marks, get set, go away
Boy, when love rushes in
We think we can win
But who can know
That love can leave on a whim
As fast as the wind
Could ever blow
Get on your feet
Get off your seat and go
I won't be beat
And I won't compete for the love I need
(Chorus)
Maybe when tomorrow comes
You'll find a brighter day
But for now, I've got to say to you
Be a man, be on your way ...
