Sometimes they'll want to cut you down
Betta scratch that itch 'cause the time is now
They tell you that you gotta have a heart of steel
If you want to keep up can you afford to feel?
When the system's wrong
you gotta tear it down
let it fall to the sea bed like a rusty crown
To the stars in the moonbeams glare
Shackles on your feet gonna disappear
What if I tried -to tell you to do what for?
Can't you see baby -Life's knocking right at your door
Oooh I just don't know for sure.
What if I tried to tell you to do what for?
Don't give up -Don't give up
Don't give up -Don't give up
Don't give up -Don't give up
Don't give up -Don't give up
She's got a talented face and a suitcase
Ain't got no desire to go no place
In her case she's got no desire
with her hand in the flame say's she don't feel the fire
To the 'yes' in the evenings air -demons in your head got to disappear
To the stars under the moon means glare
The Shackles on your meat will disappear
What if I tried to tell you to do what for?
Can't you see baby life's knocking right at your door
She said: "Oooh I just don't know for sure"
What if I tried to tell you to do what for?
Don't give up -Don't give up!..
Betta scratch that itch 'cause the time is now
