[VERSE 1]
We're walking, and that's all
Not eating, that's the way it is
Someone's saying, "what the heck?"
But I'm just gonna walk
That's all
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
It's 12:45 in the store in front of the station
Smiling, acting like I haven't been here in 10 years
Straighten your back
Twirl-twirl your legs around
Where to next?
[CHORUS]
Walkin'
Walkin'
Walkin'
Walkin'
[VERSE 2]
We're walking, and it's purely great
Not thinking much, it's purely great
Someone's saying, "what the heck?"
But it can't be helped
That's all
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Come 15:45, I'm sitting on a bench
I bought a coke for ten yen and drank it all
Mocking people passing by
Pointing fingers
[VERSE 3]
Come 23:45, at the top of the stone staircase
The twentieth beer rolls on down
Stretch my spine
I wish I could stay
Where to go tomorrow?
Walkin', yeah…
[PRE-CHORUS 3]
Come 23:45, at the top of the stone staircase
The twentieth beer has me dizzy
I'm feeling pretty nice
Wish I could feel nice forever
Where to go tomorrow?
