Even though their sights are low I'm keeping my aim high Let them go Run your own show And keep your powder dry They say it takes all kind But to me it seems such a waste 'cos it's the bitterest kind of wine I don't know how they can stand it's taste They oughta know by now I ain't gonna jump through hoops Just to please anyone Even though their sights are low I'm keeping my aim high They don't know their eyes are closed But mine are open wide Yeah. Oh, yeah They oughta know by now I ain't gonna lose much sleep When they'll wake up to themselves They oughta know by now I ain't gonna lose much sleep When they'll wake up When will they wake up? Even though their sights are low I'm keeping my aim high Let them go Run your own show And keep your powder dry
