So you wanna be a soldier
But you're sleeping on the front line
So you go and see a doctor
To try and fix all your minds
Hold it on and on
But you can't work it out
Shake it up and up
Until it makes a sound
Wake me up and say that you're all better now
I've heard it all before
I go strong
"Just live it up, " said you
Go fast
"Just live it up, " said you
Stay strong
"Just live it up, " said you
For you, girl
So you wanna be a teacher
But the kids are always failing
Your mother did it better
Now your brother's always praying
Hold it on and on
But you can't work it out
Shake it up and up
Until it makes a sound
Wake me up and say that your all better now
I've heard it all before
I go strong
"Just live it up, " said you
Go fast
"Just live it up, " said you
I go strong
"Just live it up, " said you
Go fast
And you wanna be free to say
That now you dream of getting away
You were all the things I live for
You were all the things I live for
And I know that you wanted to stay
You're with the birds but you're flying away
You were all the things I live for
You were all the things I live for
"Just live it up, " said you
"Just live it up, " said you
I go strong
"Just live it up, " said you
Go fast
"Just live it up, " said you
Stay strong
"Just live it up, " said you
For you, girl
"Just live it up, " said you
I go strong
"Just live it up, " said you
Go fast
"Just live it up, " said you
Stay strong
"Just live it up, " said you
For you, girl
