If I give up
The seat I've been saving
To some elderly
Lady or man
Am I be ing a good boy
Am I your pride and joy
Mother please
If you're pleased say I am
And if while
In the course of my duty
I perform
An unfortunate take
Would you punish me
So unbelievably so
Never again
Will I make that mistake
This feeling inside me
Could never deny me
The right to be wrong
If I choose
And this pleasure I get
From say winning a bet
When I'm drinking
My bonaparte shandy
Eating more
Than enough apple pies
Will I glance at my screen
And see real human beings
Starve to death
Right in front of my eyes
Nothing old nothing new
Nothing ventured
Nothing gained
Nothing still born or lost
Nothing further than proof
Nothing wil der than youth
Nothing older than time
Nothing sweeter than wine
Nothing physically recklessly
Hopelessly blind
Nothing I couldn't say
Nothing why 'cos today
This feeling inside me
Could never deny me
The right to be wrong
If I choose
And this pleasure I get
From say winning a bet
Nothing good nothing bad
Nothing ventured
Nothing gained
Nothing still born or lost
Nothing further than proof
Nothing wilder than youth
Nothing older than time
Nothing sweeter than wine
Nothing physically recklessly
Hopelessly blind
Nothing I couldn't say
Nothing why 'cos today
