As Good As It Gets

Be careful in life and you'll see

The greedy live off you and me

This is the code, we can't break history

The greedy still fear you and me

So get out of the way



People have to work

Not wallow in the dirt

People want to work



I bet that

This is as good as it gets, yes

How can you ask for more?

"If you're paid you're not poor"

This is as good as it gets, yes

We've been bought, we've been sold

At least we're not old



When red became blue

Hopes denied

Our dreams sweapt away with the tide

So get out of the way



People want to work

Not fester in the dirt

People have to work



I bet that

This is as good as it gets, yes

How can you ask for more?

"If you're paid you're not poor"

This is as good as it gets, yes

We've been bought, we've been sold

At least we're not old

Can your heart take the cold?
