lyrics

DESIGN YOUR LIFE OR SOMEONE WILL GLADLY DO IT FOR YOU.
THEY WILL DRAW DOWN ALL THE LINES YOU ARE NOT TO CROSS,
THEN WRITE DOWN THE RULES AND SOON CARVE THEM INTO STONE.
YOU GOT TO FOLLOW, OR YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN.

OH BOY, YOU GOT TO LEARN WHEN TO SAY NO.
YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT ALL.
YOU ARE PUSHING YOURSELF WAY TOO HARD.

OH BOY, YOU GOT TO LEARN TO SAY NO.
YOU CAN'T SACRIFICE IT ALL.
THEY WOULD HAVE YOU STRIPPED TO BONE.

NOW, WE ALL CONTEND,
ACCLAIMED CHAMPIONS OF THE RAT RACE,
SET DOWN IN TRADE AND PLACE
I SEE YOU ARE TRYING ON MASKS,
AND YOU CAN WEAR EACH DAY A NEW FACE
BUT YOU STILL GOT TO RUN
AT A BREAKNECK PACE,
IN THIS BREAKNECK RACE.

BUT I DON'T WANT TO PLAY
A PART IN THIS GAME ANYMORE.
I DON'T WANT TO WAIT
FOR THE REST OF MY DAYS
WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT I AM WAITING FOR.
DON'T GET ME WRONG, I AM A PATIENT BOY.
BUT I AM NOT INCLINED TO GROW OLD IN THE WAITING ROOM,
OR NOT JUST YET, NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT.
I AM NOT READY TO GIVE UP, OR AT LEAST NOT SO SOON.
