Do you ever get tired of the football kids With their sporty styles When you stay home they run miles And don't you ever get bored with the job you've got You wanted it badly But wish you were on the dole
I've got what it takes to be on my way With pen and paper i'll say I know you all Read about yourselves in my essay I've got what it takes to be on my way In a book i'll claim
Do you ever get tired of the friends you have As you got them talking There's no stopping them now And don't you get tired of the lack of time Whatever you're starting always goes on for years
I felt tired tonight Keep me out of sight
I've got what it takes to be on my way With pen and paper i'll say I know you all Read about yourselves in my essay I've got what it takes to be on my way In a book i'll claim I know your kind You fill up my mind
