Don't Waste your time on people going nowhere
Make up your own mind, and your already half way there
Hesitate, or give a second thought
And your'll be late
Forget what you've been taught
you could have it nice, or complicated
You could pay full price or you could take it
You could improvise and be creative
You've got a lot to give
and You've got a life to live
don't put it off another minute longer
don't go all soft, you've gotta be stronger
don't speculate, cos noone ever knows
Its upto fate, and you can't predict the way it goes
you could have it nice, or complicated
You could pay full price or you could take it
You could improvise and be creative
You've got a lot to give
and You've got a life to live
You don't do anything
You won't do anything
you won't say anything that isn't kind, anything that isn't nice
Don't Waste your time on people going nowhere
Don't wait in line if you expect to get somewhere
save you breathe, don't wanna hear you sense
It's just a guess and you only have this chance
you could have it nice, or complicated
You could pay full price or you could take it
You could improvise and be creative
You've could roll the dice or you could play dead
you could give advice or you could take it.
you could have it all, you can it all
you can
everything you love, everything you love, everything you love
you can have it all, you can have it all
you can
everything you love, everything you love, everything you love
you can have it all, you can have it all
you can
everything you love, everything you love, everything you love
Reach out and take it
you've got so much to give
and you've got a life to live
