[Verse 1]
Life, when we were kids
Was like playing Giant Steps
We were told
To advance
We obeyed
Took the chance
You're it

[Verse 2]
Think of life as chess
Capture one piece at a time
Forward east
Castle next
Not the pace
But the steps
Checkmate

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Think of life as chess
Capture one piece at a time
Forward east
Castle next
Not the pace
But the steps
Checkmate
[Verse 3]
Try a brand new game
It's called "Blow and watch me go!"
Hold a thought
In your mind
Think a note
Match the rhyme

[Outro]
Ooh ah
Giant steps
Ooh ah
Giant steps
Ooh ah
Giant steps
