lyrics
Choose between steak, for supper at eight, or lobster instead,
who cares what you eat?
Bathing in rain of white foamed Champagne,
go live your life once, this might be your chance!
Don’t choke while you swallow, the bill will just follow,
be sent to your kids, in case my friend, you don’t persist.
Be careful what you choose, it all comes down on you,
cause all we are is time and choices are bound.
The decade that you win, is sand in the mill,
of decades of tumbling, old men on their way to the grave.
Just work earn and rule, go winners are cool,
they made it themselves, don’t need no one else.
They yell if they speak, got power to raise,
the level that made men ‘the man’.
Don’t trip while you’re yelling, this rise has an ending,
so hold your kids tight and kiss ’em goodnight,
the higher the flight, the harder it is to come down.
Be careful what you choose, it all comes down on you,
cause all we are is time and choices are bound.
The decade that you win, is sand in the mill,
of decades of tumbling, old men on their way to the grave.
When it’s all done, when you’re nearly gone,
what will be won and what’s left?
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living
someone else’s life, is by far the most crucial and direct
point anyone has ever made about success.
Simply put, by working for someone, you will never be successful,
you might be content, but not successful.
Success is taking something you believe in, and making it work.
The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t
found it yet, keep looking, don’t settle!
Decisions are made and kids are just bait,
for those who had doubts, ‘bout your coming out.
You fooled ‘em with flair, struck rough through their hair,
and no one ever knew, but neither did you.
A deathbed’s forsaken, your hand won’t be taken,
no fingers will cross, when you take off
and white foamed Champagne will raise, when you are gone.
