Get Too Far

Crazy thing about the current situation
Well, people really think of stealing
With the runaway inflation
And all the union made a strike
And you can hear their voices holler
Oh, well, you got your ten and twenty
But you're working worth a dollar
Can you hear them groan
Hear them bitch and moan
See them near and far
No matter who they are
They'll never get too far
Never get too far
Never get there
No, no
I had a fight with my old lady
She says violence isn't proper
Oh, well, she told me she was leaving
There was no way I could stop her
Now I don't got nobody
To do my wash and do my cooking
Well, I'm a hard-working man
I think it's time to be good-looking
Hey!
Well, what's the entry fee
In this high society
What you gonna do
When it all depends on you
Good luck, baby!
Well, I'm training for the war
I can see the walls are coming
Oh, I don't know if I'll be covered
I know I won't be running
And all the leaders of the nation
Will be on the border crying
But they don't know me when I'm fighting
They won't help me when I'm dying
Can you hear them groan
Hear them bitch and moan
No matter who they are
They'll never get too far, no
Can you hear them groan
Hear them bitch and moan
No matter who they are
They'll never get too far
Get too far
Whoa, get too far
Get too far
No, no, no, no, get too far
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh whoa
Whoa oh, oh whoa
I can see the warrior coming
But I know I won't be running
'Cause I'll never get too far
Oh, the union may be crying
They'll be cheating, they'll be lying
But they'll never get too far
All the leaders of the nation
Turn their backs on this inflation
But they'll never get too far
Oh, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, whoa
