Song Lyrics

Sometimes they'll want to cut you down
Betta scratch that itch cos 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
Ooh 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, "Ooh I just don't know for sure"
What if I tried to tell you to do what for?
