[Verse 1] Exercise to stay alive Another year has gone and pa**ed you by Waking up to coffee cup Stretch it off, rip it up [Verse 2] When the old man gets to see it He’ll be whistling All his worries away And I know just how you see them Keep believin’ That you’ll find your foot someday [Chorus 1] But you won’t, will you boy But no you won’t will you boy It’s not what you want, is it boy It’s not what you want
[Verse 3] Exercise another way To live your life, some other day ahead Sleepin’ in the day begins You decide to rise up from your bed [Verse 4] When the old man gets to see it Understand that all his dreamin’ days are gone And I hope now that you’ll feel it Your belief in all this nonsense is done [Chorus 2] But it’s not, is it boy No it’s not, is it boy So take what you’ve got, can’t you boy Take what you’ve got
