| Lyrics |
| Why must we be put down when we try to get away?
Why must we all grow up when we could just play and play? Good things in life are free - can't buy everything, that's true Only one thing wrong with that - what it don't buy I don't use Only thing I'm thinking of is "Why are we all here?" There must be more to do at nights than drinking rotten beer The world's a very shady place, and you can't trust a soul "Grin and bear it" seemed the thing, when it just gets a hold At a later date - it might come out a fright At a later date - I hope that you're alright Human beings are dangerous and they call me in the dark But everything gets twice as cold in marching for a lark There's loads of things I'd like to do if I could find the time Working really tires me and I think I'll turn to crime At a later date - I hope they start it soon At a later date - before we hit the moon I just can't be bothered to make an effort here at all People make you feel your contributions are too small I just can't be bothered to make an effort here at all People make you feel your contributions are too small At a later date - I'll be awful great At a later date - someone somewhere blew it At a later date - at a later date |
