Two hands
I wanna play the piano with two hands
Should I learn
To ask of many if it's the way of the world
Boy wanna be here to me
You gave me a piano with all 88 keys
But two hands
What's it gonna do
With two hands
To make the money like the richest of men
What's a guy to do
With two hands
I can make you be so good to me
Give me all the time with my sexuality
So clap your hands if you're working too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
And the beat's so hard, you're workin' workin'
Two hands
What you're supposed to do with two hands
To get the life of the richest of men
Where you supposed to go with two hands
I cannot be something in between
When I'm breaking my back and I'm on my knees
So clap your hands if you're working too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
And the beat's so hard, you're workin' workin'
And I can't escape from the work in L.A.
And I can't sleep in my bed in UK.
And clap your hands if you're workin' too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
You see life and it's falling away
You slow down and the rest makes you pay
I see you lookin' up
You want to think about it
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
And the beat's so hard, you're workin' workin'
And I can't escape from the work in L.A.
And I can't sleep in my bed in UK.
And clap your hands if you're workin' too hard
Clap your hands if you're working too hard
