The Original Lyrics File |
|
They say turn the bright lights on |
|
And there you'll find the truth |
|
Here, open up this book |
|
And now you'll find the proof |
|
It feels like a can of worms |
|
Keep the lid on tight |
|
They say |
|
Don't let it get too bright (x3) |
|
No |
|
They tell me it takes sorrow, boy |
|
To help you feel the joy |
|
They say it takes poverty |
|
To let you love a toy |
|
Now you can't have the good |
|
Until you've shared the bad |
|
Don't let it get too sad (x3) |
|
No, not this time, time |
|
They say it takes hardship, boy |
|
To let you love arrest |
|
Sometimes underneath the road |
|
Is where I show my best |
|
Go, put your work clothes on |
|
Go and leave your mark |
|
And they say |
|
Don't let it get too dark (x3) |
|
No, not this time |
