| I didn’t know 'bout the modern ways of life, I didn’t really care
|
| I never gave a damn about the future, I never got my share
|
| Somebody said, boy your time’s a wastin', you’re movin’much too slow
|
| So many things in life worth tastin', so much you oughta know — look out
|
| Get down, fool around, if you got half a chance, you take it Ooh yeah, stand your ground, you gotta bend the rules to make it Hold tight, see the light, think of all the dues you’re payin'
|
| So true, I’m tellin’you, wise up, can’t you hear me sayin'
|
| You gotta get all you can take — sing along, gotta keep on hummin'
|
| Stop waitin’for your lucky break — stop waitin', wastin’time
|
| What fuckin’difference does it make? |
| — ooh, gotta keep it comin'
|
| You gotta get all you can take — doncha know I’m gonna take what’s mine
|
| People lookin', eyes wide open, tell me what you see
|
| Bodies tired, minds 'a chokin', you gotta set 'em free
|
| Don’t think about the race they’re runnin', they’ll never let you in With all the rules, it’s a race of fools, and you can never win — look out
|
| Get down, fool around, think of all the dues you’re payin'
|
| Oh yeah, stand your ground, wise up, can’t you hear me sayin'
|
| (Yeah you know what I’m talking about, ah just take a look around you) |
