I didn´t know ´bout the modern ways of life, I didn´t really care
I never gave a damn about the future, I never got my share
Somebody said, boy your time´s a wastin´,
you´re movin´ much too slow
So many things in life worth tastin´,
so much you oughta know - look out
Get down, fool around, if you got half a chance, you take it
Ooh yeah, stand your ground, you gotta bend the rules to make it
Hold tight, see the light, think of all the dues you´re payin´
So true, I´m tellin´ you, wise up, can´t you hear me sayin´
You gotta get all you can take
sing along, gotta keep on hummin´
Stop waitin´ for your lucky break - stop waitin´, wastin´ time
What fuckin´ difference does it make? - ooh, gotta keep it comin´
You gotta get all you can take
doncha know I´m gonna take what´s mine
People lookin´, eyes wide open, tell me what you see
Bodies tired, minds ´a chokin´, you gotta set ´em free
Don´t think about the race they´re runnin´,
they´ll never let you in
With all the rules, it´s a race of fools,
and you can never win - look out
Get down, fool around, think of all the dues you´re payin´
Oh yeah, stand your ground, wise up, can´t you hear me sayin´
You gotta get all you can take
sing along, gotta keep on hummin´
Stop waitin´ for your lucky break - stop waitin´, wastin´ time
What fuckin´ difference does it make? - ooh, gotta keep it comin´
You gotta get all you can take
doncha know I´m gonna take what´s mine
(Yeah you know what I´m talking about,
ah just take a look around you)
You gotta get all you can take
sing along, gotta keep on hummin´
Stop waitin´ for your lucky break - stop waitin´, wastin´ time
What fuckin´ difference does it make? - ooh, gotta keep it comin´
You gotta get all you can take
doncha know I´m gonna take what´s mine
