The Idiouts - Get Up and Go Lyrics

Some would say that life's a chore
It's a bore, it's a sore, it's nothing more
Others would point out that life is grand
Give a hand, have no plans, make a bold new stand
Some will think and some will ponder
Some will follow and some will wander
What will you do? It's all up to you
The world's at your feet, so lie back and take a seat

You're at the beginning of your life
So much is still ahead and so little behind
It's a dangerous road to go alone
Take your friends, take your hope, just Get Up and Go

A decade seems like a long ways away
But in May you will say, "Hey that's my age today"
I know what I want and I know more than you
'Cause it's new, 'cause it's true, 'cause there are only a few
I wanna have a sense of self-security and I wanna engage in my own liberty
So fill my life up with useless needs, I've heard her say so I better start granting her pleas

You're at the beginning of your life
So much is still ahead and so little behind
It's a dangerous road to go alone
Take your friends, take your hope, just Get Up and Go

Change is bound to come charging ahead
Take your head out of bed and control it instead
Your life is 'bout to enter an off-kilter phase
Count the days, pave your way, wear your polonaise
You can't be the same you're thinking I'll bet
But don't fret, don't sweat, it's not over yet
The climax of your childhood age
Is only the first in the series of your lifelong page

You're at the beginning of your life
So much is still ahead and so little behind
It's a dangerous road to go alone
Take your friends, take your hope, just Get Up and Go
