Reason 36 Songtext

von Alarm

Well I'm always getting told I gotta to keep my place
And to build a little house that suits my face
But I can't stand still and that is serious
Then I was given the tools to help in a trade
I can't even dig with a pick nor spade
And you know as well as I do
That makes no sense

I try to speak out or get spoken for
And I leave smilin' as you flip your coin some more
Now it's a long road to
Where the old meets the new
And I ain't going to live this way
Now I've seen the present
And I've seen the future too
And I ain't gonna live this way
Hey hey hey hey

Now well

Well I've done a lot deals that I called my way
And I guess I've always had the kind of nerve to say
That there's rulesfor suckers but there ain't no rules for me

So if you've ever had the blues or you're feeling bad
Or you've given up on justa'bout all you've had
Then listen up to what I'm gonna say

I try to speak out or get spoken for
And I leave smilin' as you flip your coin some more
Well it's a long road to
Where the old meets the new
And I ain't going to live this way
Now I've seen the present
And I've seen the future too
And I ain't gonna live this way
Hey hey hey hey

Well your deceited little lies
Have deceived you good
And now I gotta hope that you realise
And think before you next speak out of turn
And before you take on everything that's on the plate
I hope, I hope you find it's not too late
To choose exactly where you're gonna eat your food

I try to speak out or get spoken for
And I leave smilin' as you flip your coin some more
Well it's a long road to
Where the old meets the new
And I ain't going to live this way
Now I've seen the present
And I've seen the future too
And I ain't gonna live this way
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
