We've been walking through the hard times See the good news vanish way before it's shown But i don't fake a smile Cuz i know the time is going Taking advantage while-while the chance is good You got sad eyes, never realized Lost your balance, got no talent Broke and flat is less you know that Yeah, you got the hard times on your side Kicks you down More than you ever been before Take a second try You'll be home before you know it Taking advantage while, While you're young and While your chance is good Policeman writes me up a big fine He's filling up my year with talk about the law But i don't hear his hassle Cuz i know that he's an asshole Writing up the slip and jacking off his jaw
