Another winter of your discontent
I know how you scream and shout
When nothing you see makes any sense
Invaluable excuses drop like pearls in your self defense
You never do nothin' about nothin', no
Where's all your confidence?
Why can't you reach for a closer dream?
The reason you fail is you go to extremes
You don't have to lie, you gotta try
If you fall, you can call, but you don't have to crawl
You give up, hah, baby, when it gets too rough
You ain't got what it takes, no, you ain't tough enough
You give up, you're lazy when it starts to rock
And when you see a way out, you go, ooh, yeah
Another day goes by
Another tale to tell
How you nearly made it, oh, so far
Yeah, you nearly did really well
Now, why can't you reach for a closer dream?
The people who care, they don't mind where you've been
You don't have to lie, you gotta try
If you fall, you can call, but you don't have to crawl
You give up, hah, baby, when it gets too rough
You ain't got what it takes, no, you ain't tough enough
You give up, you're lazy, when it starts to rock
And when you see a way out, you go, ooh, yeah
Well, it's another cold and lonely day
You got another tall tale to tell
How you nearly made it, oh, so far
Yeah, you nearly did really well, but I know
You give up, hah, baby, when it gets too rough
You ain't got what it takes, no, you ain't tough enough
You give up, you're lazy, when it starts to rock
And when you see a way out, you go, ooh, yeah
Ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You give up, ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah
You give up, you always give up
Well, I know you give up
You will always give up, you give up
Ooh, yeah, ooh yeah Another winter of your discontent I know how you scream and shout When nothing you see makes any sense Invaluable excuses drop like pearls in your self defense You never do nothin' about nothin', no Where's all your confidence?
