Building My Body

I'm building my body

I'm happy when I'm building my body

I'm tired of fighting, let's make friends

I'm tired of burning both ends

That's why I'm building my body

It hurts me but I'm building my body

And I know what the pain is worth

I know I feel the pain of birth

I'm pushin' up

And gettin' down with my body

There's no-one else around with my body

One look says I'm a stone disgrace

Don't kick no sand in my face

Because I'm building my body strong

I'm watching what I eat

And I'm sorting out right from wrong

Hey, not a lot of meat

And I know that it won't be long

Before I gotta quit smoking

Because I'm building my body

I'm peaceful when I'm building my body

I'm sweating out mistakes I've made

I'm getting back the dues I've paid

I'm doing more

And getting sore with my body

But I'm gaining a rapport with my body

And this seems like the perfect time

They say I'm in my prime

That's why I'm building my body strong

I'm thinking at the table

And I'm sorting out right from wrong

I'm reading every label

And I know that it won't be long

Before I gotta quit smoking

'Cause I'm building my body

There's someone else inside of my body

He's waiting to be born again
