Building My Body |
| I’m building my body |
| I’m happy when I’m building my body |
| I’m tired of fighting, let’s make friends |
| I’m tired of burning both ends |
| That’s why I’m building my body |
| It hurts me but I’m building my body |
| And I know what the pain is worth |
| I know I feel the pain of birth |
| I’m pushin' up |
| And gettin' down with my body |
| There’s no-one else around with my body |
| One look says I’m a stone disgrace |
| Don’t kick no sand in my face |
| Because I’m building my body strong |
| I’m watching what I eat |
| And I’m sorting out right from wrong |
| Hey, not a lot of meat |
| And I know that it won’t be long |
| Before I gotta quit smoking |
| Because I’m building my body |
| I’m peaceful when I’m building my body |
| I’m sweating out mistakes I’ve made |
| I’m getting back the dues I’ve paid |
| I’m doing more |
| And getting sore with my body |
| But I’m gaining a rapport with my body |
| And this seems like the perfect time |
| They say I’m in my prime |
| That’s why I’m building my body strong |
| I’m thinking at the table |
| And I’m sorting out right from wrong |
| I’m reading every label |
| And I know that it won’t be long |
| Before I gotta quit smoking |
| 'Cause I’m building my body |
| There’s someone else inside of my body |
| He’s waiting to be born again |
