...

he takes no wellfare yeah

he pays his own way

to him minds to the thunder that he draws from each day

only a fool would throw his cards out in the rain

so you build your castle and get on with your day

just 'cause it rains more on your side of town

doesn't mean the grass is greener or my blinds need pulling down

so get down of your high-horse and look me in the eye 'cause they say point blank and face to face is a better place to find your own vibes

oh you take yours and I'll take mine

...

I don't spend my days digging up your dirt

even though it's pretty plain to see it could do with a little work

the way you row your boat and keep your peace in mind

won't hang my washing out or get me to work on time

just 'cause it rains more on your side of town doesn't mean the grass is greener or my blinds need pulling down

so get down off your high horse and look me in the eye 'cause they say point blank and face to face is a better place to find your own vibes

oh you take yours and I'll take mine

...

so step off step

right off your soap box

fill it up with big rocks

and sent it down the line

yeah step off

step right off your soap box

we ain't got the time

just because it rains more on your side of town

doesn't mean the grass is greener or my blinds need pulling down

so get down off your high horse and look me in the eye 'cause they say point blank and face to face is a better place to find your own vibes

oh you take yours and I'll take mine

you take yours and I'll take mine
