Growing up means giving up
Dreams that should be left to sleep
Sow your seeds soon as you can
Or else you'll be too tired to reap
Your nose is for keeping to the grindstone
Not for smelling roses
So just follow it to work and you'll be all right.
Thinking big is thinking wrong
Keep your mind on your next task
Questions hard to answer quick
Are questions that you shouldn't ask
Every second is a sum for saving
Minutes are just money to invest
and not to spend
Life's not a dream so wake up and smell the pain
It's for sweating in the sun, not for singing in the rain
Suffering is slighter when you just accept the strain
It's the fate of every back to break in Laborland
Bloody knees and burning necks
Buy respect from God above
Callouses and cracking skin
Are the symbols of our love
Idle hands are play things of the Devil
Any game you play with him's a game that he will win
Chorus
