Every day I'm a slave to the grind
|
Think I'm loosing my mind
|
9 to 5 ain't mu kind of routine
|
Ain't nobody's machine
|
Boss says: think of the future
|
But what about today?
|
'Cos if I die tomorrow
|
There ain't no time to waste
|
|
I'm leaving
|
I'm doing my own thing
|
I'll do it...on my own
|
|
Wanna feel I'm alive, I'm a man
|
Gonna do all I can
|
Gonna try til I get what I need
|
Never give ups my creed
|
Make up your mind and do it
|
And feel you're wild at heart
|
Life is to short to worry
|
You've got to make a start
|
|
Up from zero - to where I wanna be
|
No one's hero - I do it just for me
|
Up from zero - it may be hard to do
|
No one's hero - but you can make it too
|
|
Outta work, outta cash, outta booze
|
But I won't sing no blues
|
Gonna play, gonna will, wanna bet?
|
Don't you think I'm done yet
|
When bad luck gets me down, hey
|
I'll just get up again
|
No room for desperation
|
'Cos I like happy ends
|
|
I'll rise up
|
Show you what I can take
|
I'll make it...check it out
|
|
Doesn't help to complain about your fate
|
Cos there ain't no escape
|
What you do is you put up a fight
|
Get a grip, set things right
|
When she starts getting nasty
|
Look fortune in the eye
|
She will smile down upon you
|
If you just really try
|
|
Up from zero - to where I wanna be
|
No one's hero - I do it just for me
|
Up from zero - it may be hard to do
|
No one's hero - but you can make it too
|
|
Every day I'm a slave to the grind
