Robot Monster Weekend - Laborland lyrics

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
