Well, once we were concerned
Then we grew up to be bored
What once resembled rules
Sure enough turned into jokesWe tried to stand for nothing
Now there's nothing to stand for
What started as a game
Became a chore before too longI don't mean to sound tight
But I see it's hard to fake
So rather this than talk
Get your keys and get to work
'Cause them that do nothing make no mistakesWhere once we asked for lessons
Now it's all to be ignored
How do we trust the speaker
When his callin' is to call?I don't mean to sound tight
But I see it's hard to take
So rather this than talk
Get your keys and get to work
'Cause them that do nothing make no mistakesWell, once we all were told
And we took it all as truth
If we worked hard and behaved
We'd be anything we'd chooseAnd we used to all be happy
While pretending that we weren't
Now the smiles upon our faces
Show how much it all must hurtI don't mean to sound tight
But I see it's hard to fake
So rather this than talk
Get your keys and get to work
'Cause them that do nothing
