lyrics

Wise Up:
How long does it take
To get set straight
To take your shoulder from the wheel
Kick the dust from your heels
Make a clean break
How long can you stay
Before that welcome is turned away
Before the debt becomes owed
And there’s nothing left to be sold
All you had you gave away
And you better wise up
Because no ones gonna help you
If you can’t help yourself
How much can you claim
Before all the property starts looking the same
Before the bottom falls out
There’s nothing to invest in now
Spent what you should’ve saved
How long can you be fooled
Till you see that no one plays by the rules
There’s no referee, no score to beat
No bounds in which to compete
