I gave up yesterday   Believing I can make a difference here   Sleeping twelve hours a day   No one cares anyway   Come whatever may   Ask me what I think and I would say   "I gave up half a chance    To change the way the world turns today."   Waiting 'round for the call   Nobody phoned at all   The final curtains fall   And I'll be writing on your wall like this   Chop down the money tree   A thorny bush will grow before you know   Money is what I've not   Mean more than what I've got   Steal it and you're caught   My dad might say he always says a lot   That don't sit well with me   The plates are cleared the dinner time coffee   The answers are plain to see   I always disagree   What do you mean we?    It might seem right to you but not to me
