What a way for a life to end
|
What a way for a life to begin
|
You come out kickin' and cryin'
|
You can't afford to lose
|
You don't know how to win
|
Just don't forget where you came from
|
Don't forget who you are
|
They're all beatin' the same drum
|
You've been playin' guitar
|
|
You hear the angel callin'
|
From the streets of heaven
|
You go to work in the mornin'
|
Get home by eleven
|
You're just a drop in the ocean
|
So don't rock the boat 'cause heads will roll...
|
|
Promises, promises
|
Got no control over this
|
Promises, promises
|
Not much to show except the ....
|
Heavy rocks I've been lifting
|
|
Memories I've been sifting
|
My mind is always drifting
|
And under me, the sands are shifting
|
|
You hear the angel callin'
|
From the streets of heaven
|
You go to work in the mornin'
|
Get home by eleven
|
You're just a drop in the ocean
|
So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll...
|
|
You're a drop in the ocean, baby
|
Don't drift away
|
Just a body in motion, baby
|
You're food for days
|
You're just a drop in the ocean
|
So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll...
|
|
We're all lyin' awake at night
|
We're all givin' the same advice
|
We're all sayin' it don't feel right
|
We're all rollin' the same ol' dice
|
You're always worried about money
|
You got the sting but no honey
|
They're always puttin' their hooks in me
|
They're always cookin' the books on me now
|
|
Just don't forget where you came from
|
Don't forget who you are
|
They're all beatin' the same drum
|
You've been playin' guitar
|
|
You hear the angel callin'
|
From the streets of heaven
|
You go to work in the morning
|
Get home by eleven
|
You're just a drop in the ocean
|
So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll...
|
|
You're a drop in the ocean, baby
|
Don't drift away
|
Just a body in motion, baby
|
You're food for days
|
You're just a drop in the ocean
|
So don't rock the boat cause heads will roll...
