What would you do if your world were blue
You're down and out as the limousine passes you
What will you do when your dreams all fall through
And who will you blame for your sadness and your gloom?
I tell you, you can do anything you want at all!
And in the dark of the very next room
Asthmatic gunshots, those sirens in tune
Pull your self up by the bootstraps and all
They say you're going down, but the writings here on the walls
I tell you, you can do anything you want at all!
That pounding sound, at the door or my head?
Start dancing now or soon you'll be dead
Then you can rise, your eyes beaming instead
Candlewax tease as you're tied down in bed
I tell you, you can do anything you want at all!
You've got to write it
You've got to ride it
You've got a right
You've got the will
You've got to fight it
You've got to like it
You've got to try it
You must do well
