| One day you’ll ask yourself
|
| For how long we’ll be acting like they want
|
| Living on the defensive
|
| How long
|
| How long will it take to understand
|
| We are smaller than the smallest grain of sand
|
| Maybe it’s time to slow down
|
| But you give and you give and you give
|
| But they always want some more
|
| And you dance and you shout
|
| Like you never did before
|
| But you give and you give and you give
|
| But they’re always on the make
|
| And you love and you hate
|
| So now let’s take a break
|
| Get back to where you were at the start
|
| To see how much you’ve done
|
| To dance to a different tune
|
| Who cares
|
| Whatever you did was done for good
|
| Whatever you messed up burned in flame
|
| And it’s always the same
|
| I bet it’s always the same
|
| But you give and you give and you give
|
| But they always want some more
|
| And you dance and you shout
|
| Like you never did before
|
| But you give and you give and you give
|
| But they always on the make
|
| And you love and you hate
|
| So now let’s take a break |
